In this episode of Making Risk Flow, Juan de Castro sits down with Greg Brown, Partner at Oxbow Partners, to explore the strategic choices reshaping the London insurance market. As market conditions soften and technology advances accelerate, Greg explains why firms must clearly define whether they are true leaders, niche leaders, capacity leaders, or followers, and align their operating models accordingly.
The conversation examines how misalignment between market position and business architecture can erode profitability and competitive advantage. Greg also discusses the growing importance of portfolio management, the evolution of facilities from cyclical tools to permanent market infrastructure, and the role of AI in enhancing underwriting decision-making.
