ALSUM and the Latin American marine insurance market
In December we were delighted to welcome the Latin American Association of Marine Insurance (ALSUM) as a full IUMI member. Their membership greatly enriches the IUMI community and will facilitate access to the Latin American marine insurance market giving mutual opportunities for knowledge sharing, education and networking.
In this podcast, our Secretary General, Lars Lange, welcomes ALSUM and discusses future synergies with ALSUM President Arturo Posada. We also learn about the characteristics of the Latin American market and their ambitions for the future.
This fascinating podcast gives a unique insight into a growing and exciting marine insurance market. Listen here: https://iumi.com/learning/podcasts/alsum-and-the-latin-american-marine-insurance-market/
Hegemony, violence and marine insurance
Hegemony and violence are two strong words loaded with meaning. It’s not often they are connected with the world of marine insurance. But in his recent book, award winning author Tom Shinya charts the evolution of marine insurance from its origins to the present day and explains how its formative years were entwined in conflict, war and the race for global power.
Aside from writing, Tom is well known as a Senior Expert in the Marine Underwriting Department at Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co Ltd and he is also an IUMI Executive Committee Member.
Tom is the guest in our latest podcast where he explains more about the fascinating growth and development of marine insurance. He brings to life some of the lesser known influences on our industry, listen here: https://iumi.com/learning/podcasts/hegemony-violence-and-marine-insurance/
