ASASE (Association of Spanish Underwriting Agencies) has just released a new episode of its podcast, in which it addresses one of the issues currently causing significant geopolitical uncertainty: the impact of the conflict in the Middle East on marine insurance.

The episode features Gora Orts, Managing Director of Helix Marine, an ASASE member underwriting agency specialising in transport and marine risks, who offers his technical and practical insights into how the insurance market is reacting to an environment of increasing risk.

During this discussion, the key role of the Strait of Hormuz as one of the main bottlenecks in global trade is examined, as well as the impact that current geopolitical tensions are having on maritime traffic, vessel operations and decision-making by shipowners.

The episode delves into how the nature of marine risk is changing, the tightening of underwriting conditions, rising premiums and reduced capacity, as well as the role played by reinsurance in such scenarios.

This is an episode that lovers of geopolitics and insurance are sure to enjoy, whilst also gaining a better understanding of how marine insurance works.

The episode is now available on Spotify.
