In this episode, BritCham Singapore’s Executive Director David Kelly is joined by Howden’s leadership team—Anthony Hobley (Deputy Chair, Climate Risk and Resilience), Daniel Fairweather (Head of Food Security Systems and Biodiversity), and Charlie Pool (Head of Carbon Insurance)—for a compelling conversation on the role of insurance in advancing climate resilience across Asia Pacific.
Often seen as a reactive tool, insurance is increasingly being reimagined as a proactive enabler—helping de-risk innovation, attract sustainable investment, and support nature-based solutions in vulnerable communities. The guests share how Howden is partnering with governments, NGOs, and private sector actors to close the protection gap and unlock new models of risk-sharing in the face of rising climate volatility.
Together, they explore how Singapore is positioning itself as a hub for climate and disaster risk finance, the challenges of quantifying climate risk, and the leadership mindset needed to embed sustainability into insurance products and services.
🎧 Tune in to discover how Howden’s leadership team is helping redefine insurance as a force for good—and why this matters for businesses and communities alike.
