Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Financial Services Online's weekly insurance podcast, Paige Estritori discusses major developments in the Australian insurance sector, focusing on farming safety and insurance. WFI Insurance and Farmsafe Australia have collaborated to raise farming safety standards, with WFI sponsoring the annual 'Safer Farms Report'. This partnership is paramount, in light of the rise in farm incidents leading to 72 deaths in the past year. Additionally, Argis Underwriting and Pacific International Insurance have partnered to reintroduce farm insurance in Australia. The episode also outlines reduced farm liability claims in WFI Insurance's reports, emphasizing an improvement in on-farm safety practices. The podcast wraps up by looking forward to a safer and more resilient farming industry in Australia moving forward into 2026.
