    From Compliance to Catalyst: How Enterprise Risk Management is Evolving for a Volatile World

    In this episode of Masters of Risk, host Stewart Webster sits down with Chrystina Howard, ERM leader for the Complex Risk Practice at HUB International, to explore how enterprise risk management is transforming in an era defined by volatility, interdependence, and systemic shocks. Chrystina brings decades of experience at the intersection of insurance, strategy, and complex risk, helping organizations navigate everything from geopolitical tensions and climate extremes to cyber escalation and workforce instability. Together, Stewart and Chrystina examine why ERM can no longer be treated as a compliance exercise and how leading organizations are using it as a strategic capability, one that unifies risk awareness, drives resilience, and strengthens competitive advantage. Their conversation spans the full risk horizon: alternative risk financing, the resurgence of parametric insurance, global regulatory pressures, the fragility of traditional insurance markets, and the critical role of culture in building risk‑mature organizations. Chrystina also shares a candid look at the risks keeping leaders up at night, from escalating cyber threats to declining employee wellness, and explains why the organizations positioned to thrive aren't the ones predicting every disruption, but the ones preparing to adapt to any disruption. A must-listen for executives seeking to modernize their approach to risk and unlock the full potential of ERM in a world where crises rarely occur alone.

    Beyond Volatility: Inside the Hidden Risks and Rewards of Crypto Markets

    In this episode of Masters of Risk, host Stewart Webster sits down with Ali Hassan, investor, entrepreneur, and founder of Perceptive Capital, to dissect the accelerating institutional movement into digital assets. Ali reflects on the early misconceptions surrounding Bitcoin and crypto and shares how risk frameworks have evolved as the market matures, infrastructure hardens, and regulatory uncertainty fades. Their discussion spans the full risk universe: exchange fragility, leverage, custody, smart‑contract vulnerabilities, the role of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) in global financial inclusion, and the growing belief that Bitcoin represents one of the most asymmetric return opportunities of our time. Stewart and Ali also look ahead to 2045, exploring which digital assets will survive, which will vanish, and what a world built on programmable money might mean for investors. A compelling roadmap for anyone seeking clarity in a rapidly shifting financial ecosystem.  Credits: Host: Stewart Webster Guest: Ali Hassan   Editor: Feranmi Adeoshun Published With Assistance From: Sophie Carr and Caitlin Bray
