Ep139 Mark Cloutier Group CEO Aspen: Still taking volatility down

Mark Cloutier is a dream guest. And that’s not just because he’s
the person some of the smartest financial minds in the industry
turn to to shepherd and shape their strategic turnaround
investments. Mark Cloutier knows the insurance industry inside
and out and from top to bottom, but what makes him a great
podcast guest is his openness and willingness to talk about how
the insurance, reinsurance and capital markets fit together and
interact with each other. He’s also one of the most easygoing
people you’ll meet. His job must involve huge stresses and
strains, but you would never know if you met him. Well today you
do get to meet him and together we’ll go on a grand tour of Aspen
and its place in the most dynamic and challenging markets for a
generation. Mark’s long career and perspective combined with
Aspen’s multi-faceted business model bring a really great insight
into this jittery and completely plastic market environment.
Inflation, industry capital and investor appetites, property cat,
specialty in a post-Ukraine world, the explosion in hybrid
carriers, how to handle the ESG challenge – there is valuable
understanding and a calm authority backing every statement. LINKS
