If you are reading this or listening to the podcast, you can thank Dave. I decided to try blogging (and subsequently decided to try podcasting) because I read one of Dave’s blog articles. We discussed blogging, podcasting, and studying for actuarial exams. Oh and Dave is a reinsurance broker, a partner at Beach & Associates and managing director of the New York City office, so we discussed what reinsurance brokers do, the value they bring and we spend some time discussing intermediaries (brokers/salespeople) and why he thinks they will not be disintermediated (also see this post from Dave).
