This week’s episode is more technical; the guys pull on their (re)insurance expertise and delve into reinsurance strategy, describe the differences of hard and soft markets, and the ways in which new reinsurance players can enter the industry. To balance out the technical nature of the episode, they introduce a new game, Risk of the Week!
