OLDWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Top industry leaders share their thoughts about the pandemic and its impact on the insurance industry in the four-part series, “An Industry Transformed.”

What have insurers learned from terrorism-risk programs, various state risk authorities and new sources of risk capital? As insurers, regulators and political leaders try to de-risk the future, how do insurers adapt? If there is to be a government response, such as a PRIA program, how should it work? Watch now: www.ambest.com/ambtv/reach.

Panelists include:

  • Barry Gilway, president, chief executive officer and executive director, Citizens Property Insurance;
