    "Geopolitical insurance: Are you covered?"

    In this episode of The S4GEO Podcast, titled "Geopolitical Insurance: Are You Covered?", Rodger Baker engages with industry experts Dominic Donald and Guy Moffitt to explore the crucial intersection of geopolitical risk and insurance. As we navigate the current conflicts impacting global trade, particularly in the Middle East, we discuss how businesses can assess their insurance coverage, especially in light of war exclusions that could leave them vulnerable. The conversation delves into the unique challenges faced by companies reliant on international supply chains and the importance of understanding contingent exposures. By unpacking the role of insurance in enabling and protecting business continuity amidst geopolitical tensions, this episode provides vital insights for organizations aiming to navigate today’s complex landscape effectively. Dominick Donald has spent 25 years helping corporations, governments, the media and multinational organizations understand the implications of global and regional developments.
