How to Win a Soft Market Without Burning Bridges | TRP #172
<p>In a softening reinsurance market, it’s tempting to chase the cheapest capacity, squeeze every last point out of pricing, and call it a win. But that’s how you burn bridges. In this episode, Ben and Jerad unpack how cedents and brokers should approach renewal season when capital is abundant, pricing pressure is building, and everyone suddenly has options again.</p><p><br></p><p>CONNECT WITH US:</p><p>Say Hello: <a href="mailto:producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com"><u>producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com</u></a></p><p>Website:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGJSakdTOGduUktoMW1rTUtiUjMyTzhBeUlHUXxBQ3Jtc0tsU1V4aTl5cUhIak1RN1pfZFJ6QXJrTnNvMHdicElXcjdOUHEzZk9vdlBJTm11TjYtQlRnUmxwZW5peTBySGhuY2pSOUw1bkdiandoYWhWTDdGUXRJWThvVEhaWm43NVBvemotd3dSdGxscVRocXgzOA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.supercede.com%2F&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://www.supercede.com</u></a> </p><p>LinkedIn:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXM1ZGdfYVI2VXVIYnpoVExBMU5tWVJqeWsxZ3xBQ3Jtc0ttVzBUci1ZMnN0UlBhSFBuaUFGVHRRb3dsRTZvV0ZDZUNVVnR3bjJ5eVpUcFEwWGtZek5lTWozZFg5TXVyQ092Sk5xb2sybC1vOHNZU2JRM1pBWGJ2Qnd3R3huUUhvZElsMHp0Rmc3LWJweDNGU0R1WQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fsupercedehq&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> </a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq"><u>https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq</u></a> </p><p>X:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa3BoS0U3ZzlIVmlXTHU2OVJTazhOZVNuLWxjZ3xBQ3Jtc0tuVGpFZkJLOURFc0RRWkdMSzk1NzZZLUN3eFpxYTc5Z2JkYVd2ZFJKakpJdEYtOTJPbWdrTV9VSHNIWEdadExodndJa0xZMklfaEwwYXJmZmZQWGFWRkhRYmNoa2FGMEg1akRSSHZZXy1HZWY1VUlUNA&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FSupercedeHQ&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://twitter.com/SupercedeHQ</u></a> </p><p>YouTube:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuzfykcesD0phGaCK7qB09Q"><u> </u></a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ"><u>https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ</u></a> </p><p>RSS Feed:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbWNnQnpqLTl6Rm51Mk43V0t4VGppTWhjbm5MZ3xBQ3Jtc0tsN2hoZHF3RURrZG1DNDMwVFh2WmM4Zm5MTndXWjkzZW9rcTN6U2kxakJYa2ZjLVFmX3RFZk5HSEstS0hqNVBBMlNObjJpdG9KYnBjcEJUdGQ4dnU3N0NtT0NmLVlfRzlfNUNobk9ZUFVpRHJWcE96QQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fanchor.fm%2Fs%2F7e741c8c%2Fpodcast%2Frss&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://anchor.fm/s/7e741c8c/podcast/rss</u></a> </p><p><br></p><p>OUTLINE & TIMESTAMPS:</p><p>00:00 Intro<br>01:06 Soft Market Strategies<br>02:17 New Narratives & Softening Conditions<br>03:49 Cedents: Opportunity or Trap?<br>06:24 How Poor Data Damages Relationships<br>08:27 The Broker’s Role in a Soft Market<br>09:11 Price Cuts vs Long-Term Partnerships<br>11:31 Why Hammering Existing Partners Can Backfire<br>15:20 A Benign Cat Year… But What Comes Next?<br>19:14 Spotting Gaps Across Programmes<br>20:23 Using the Soft Market to Rethink Structures<br>21:23 Broker Nimbleness & Proactive Ideas<br>24:09 Closing Thoughts</p>

How Challenger Brokers Are Winning Clients in a Soft Market | TRP #171
<p>Reinsurance brokers invest heavily in analytics, cat models, and back-office systems. Almost none of it faces the client. In a softening market where cheaper reinsurance is table stakes, Ben Rose and Tom Spier break down why the broker-client relationship is the one that actually needs the technology — and why most firms have completely overlooked it.</p><p><br></p><p>WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:</p><ul><li>Why getting clients a cheaper deal is no longer enough to keep their business in a soft market</li><li>How challenger brokers backed by private equity are forcing the big three to rethink their value proposition</li><li>The structural reason brokers can't build client-facing tools in-house (and why clients don't want them to)</li><li>Why the broker who meets the client where they already work will win over the one with the flashiest portal</li><li>What cedents should be looking for when choosing between ten credible brokers instead of three</li></ul><p><br></p><p>CONNECT WITH US:</p><p>Say Hello: <a href="mailto:producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com"><u>producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com</u></a></p><p>Website:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGJSakdTOGduUktoMW1rTUtiUjMyTzhBeUlHUXxBQ3Jtc0tsU1V4aTl5cUhIak1RN1pfZFJ6QXJrTnNvMHdicElXcjdOUHEzZk9vdlBJTm11TjYtQlRnUmxwZW5peTBySGhuY2pSOUw1bkdiandoYWhWTDdGUXRJWThvVEhaWm43NVBvemotd3dSdGxscVRocXgzOA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.supercede.com%2F&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://www.supercede.com</u></a> </p><p>LinkedIn:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXM1ZGdfYVI2VXVIYnpoVExBMU5tWVJqeWsxZ3xBQ3Jtc0ttVzBUci1ZMnN0UlBhSFBuaUFGVHRRb3dsRTZvV0ZDZUNVVnR3bjJ5eVpUcFEwWGtZek5lTWozZFg5TXVyQ092Sk5xb2sybC1vOHNZU2JRM1pBWGJ2Qnd3R3huUUhvZElsMHp0Rmc3LWJweDNGU0R1WQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fsupercedehq&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> </a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq"><u>https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq</u></a> </p><p>X:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa3BoS0U3ZzlIVmlXTHU2OVJTazhOZVNuLWxjZ3xBQ3Jtc0tuVGpFZkJLOURFc0RRWkdMSzk1NzZZLUN3eFpxYTc5Z2JkYVd2ZFJKakpJdEYtOTJPbWdrTV9VSHNIWEdadExodndJa0xZMklfaEwwYXJmZmZQWGFWRkhRYmNoa2FGMEg1akRSSHZZXy1HZWY1VUlUNA&q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FSupercedeHQ&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://twitter.com/SupercedeHQ</u></a> </p><p>YouTube:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuzfykcesD0phGaCK7qB09Q"><u> </u></a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ"><u>https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ</u></a> </p><p>RSS Feed:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbWNnQnpqLTl6Rm51Mk43V0t4VGppTWhjbm5MZ3xBQ3Jtc0tsN2hoZHF3RURrZG1DNDMwVFh2WmM4Zm5MTndXWjkzZW9rcTN6U2kxakJYa2ZjLVFmX3RFZk5HSEstS0hqNVBBMlNObjJpdG9KYnBjcEJUdGQ4dnU3N0NtT0NmLVlfRzlfNUNobk9ZUFVpRHJWcE96QQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fanchor.fm%2Fs%2F7e741c8c%2Fpodcast%2Frss&v=TDeDVadh0mY"> <u>https://anchor.fm/s/7e741c8c/podcast/rss</u></a> </p><p><br></p><p>OUTLINE & TIMESTAMPS:</p><p>00:00 Intro01:57 How Supercede Started04:06 The Real Friction Isn't Between Broker and Underwriter05:54 The Broker Landscape: From Big Three to Top Fifteen08:13 Hard Market vs Soft Market: How Broker Value Shifts09:19 Cheap Reinsurance Is Table Stakes — Now What?10:31 What Brokers Actually Spend Their Tech Budgets On12:34 The Gap: Nothing Between Broker and Client13:56 Why In-House Portals Don't Work for Clients14:48 Analytics & the PDF Report Problem16:08 Meeting Clients Where They Are17:48 Minimising Change Management by Using Existing Workflows</p>

Your Reinsurance Tech Isn't Making You Money | TRP #170
<p>Since cat modelling landed in the early '90s, nothing in reinsurance tech has stuck with the same force. Blockchain, digital exchanges, Blueprint 2 — the graveyard is long. Ben Rose and Tom Spier trace the history of failed innovation and land on a question the industry still hasn't answered well: if efficiency doesn't move the needle and speed doesn't matter, what does technology in reinsurance actually need to do?</p><p><br></p><p>WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:</p><ul><li>Why the efficiency argument falls flat in reinsurance — and what to pitch instead</li><li>How blockchain's transparency killed its own value proposition in a market built on information asymmetry</li><li>The chicken-and-egg problem that buried most market-wide adoption plays</li><li>Why single-player value — tech that works even if nobody else uses it — is the pattern that survives</li><li>What AI actually changes for reinsurance software and where vibe-coded solutions will fall short</li></ul><p><br></p><p>TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Intro(01:57) Cat Modelling: The Last Innovation That Stuck(04:58) The Graveyard — Why Digital Reinsurance Keeps Failing(06:50) Reinsurance Is Not a Commodities Market(09:00) Digitisation vs. Digitalisation — What Actually Adds Value(10:49) The Efficiency Trap — Why It Doesn't Move the Needle(14:47) Speed, Timing and Precision — The Real Nuance(15:17) Blockchain's Transparency Problem(17:02) Information Asymmetry and Why It Matters(17:56) The Chicken-and-Egg Adoption Problem(19:54) AI's Promise — And the Vibe Coding Trap(22:37) Niche Software, Common Standards and Interoperability(26:27) Why the Placement Process Hasn't Changed(27:20) Trust, Relationships and £100M Decisions(31:39) Will Robots Be at Monte Carlo This Year?</p><p><br></p><p>CONNECT WITH US:Say Hello: <a href="mailto:producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com">producer@thereinsurancepodcast.com</a>Website: <a href="https://www.supercede.com">https://www.supercede.com</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq">https://www.linkedin.com/company/supercedehq</a>X: <a href="https://twitter.com/SupercedeHQ">https://twitter.com/SupercedeHQ</a>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ">https://www.youtube.com/@SupercedeHQ</a>RSS Feed: <a href="https://anchor.fm/s/7e741c8c/podcast/rss">https://anchor.fm/s/7e741c8c/podcast/rss</a></p>
