In this weeks episode of Insurance Town I had the honor and privilege of interviewing my good friend and Brother from another mother Brian Thompson of Descartes Underwriters. We talk about all things Parametric Insurance. I have to admit I've been in this industry a long time and I've also had the privilege of interviewing a lot of insurance professionals, but I had not one clue about parametric insurance, Until now!!

Brian is so good at breaking this down for me, and for you the audience, I am so thankful he stopped by and hung out with me for a little bit. We laughed and learned alot today!
