In this week's "Weekly Insurance News Wrap," host Paige Estritori discusses significant movements within the Australian insurance sector. Key highlights include Suncorp Group's raised reinsurance protection limit to a remarkable $6.75 billion, driving stability in insurance premiums in Australia and New Zealand. Innovations to enhance resilience to risk and exceed regulatory requires were also discussed, alongside the non-renewal of a quota share agreement for Queensland's home insurance. Suncorp's strategic moves, post-bank sale, aim to further safeguard insurance margins.
