Home insurance affordability challenges and what to do about them are discussed in detail on the latest episode of the Insurance News podcast.

As previously reported, a cross-sector coalition has called on the federal government to set up a forum in the next six months to drive a national housing resilience program.

This week’s edition of INsight, hosted by Insurance News MD Andrew Silcox, features editor-in-chief John Deex, deputy editor Wendy Pugh and senior journalist Bernice Han. The episode is sponsored by Zurich, with head of strategic broker management Melissa Starfield joining the panel to discuss the insurer’s new AR Advance initiative.

Also discussed by the team are high-level departures at Chubb and AIG, the latest consultation on removing NSW’s emergency services levy, and union efforts to push insurers into pausing in-office mandates during the fuel crisis.
