PassportCard's evacuation of customers stranded in the Middle East conflict zone is the first item discussed on the latest episode of the Insurance News podcast.

As previously reported, the travel insurer covered all costs - running into six figures - despite war exclusions in its policies.

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 journalists Bernice Han and Miranda Maxwell.

The panel also discusses Vero's SME index, further submissions to the parliamentary inquiry into small business insurance, and some unintended consequences of super reform.
