I've retired as Insurance Research Leader at Deloitte and a long career as Editor at National Underwriter, but I still have plenty of insights to share.

Some further notes on inflation in the wake of the ECI report. We can quibble about details on the numbers, but two things seem clear: compensation growth has fallen substantially, but is still probably too high to be consistent with 2 percent inflation 1/

holy shit, I feel like I’m in legendary company w/ this thread, thank you so much Edgar!!!
Replying to @edgarwright
MOONRISE KINGDOM: Sometimes overlooked in Wes Anderson’s filmography is, for me, one of his most perfect films. Modest and intimate, but still building to an operatic climax, it’s perhaps his sweetest, funniest film, with great central performances by Kara Hayward & Jared Gilman.

Gonna be there in person for a Q&A. So excited. Can’t wait to finally leave the country again, even for such a brief period of time. Come over if you’re nearby! Or stay home. I can’t control your life. Or can I? Guess you’ll just have to come in order to find out!
So in case you hadn't heard, we've got Moonrise Kingdom's @realJaredGilman joining us a very special guest at #wesfestuk this year. It's August Bank Holiday Weekend and you can get info and tickets here: wesfest.co.uk/

Love this point from @DeloitteFinSvcs' Julie Bernard: "Financial planners look at efficiency ratios and leverage ratios as they evaluate companies. Is there an equivalent in the [cybersecurity] marketplace for measuring the effectiveness or efficiency of a cyber program?"
#CWPodcast guests are Julie Bernard from @Deloitte and John Carlson from the @FSISAC on the recent report, “Pursuing #cybersecurity maturity at financial institutions.” Check it out on the podcast: bit.ly/CWPod052919
Check out this blog post by @SamOnInsurance, something he wrote after attending our Chief Claims Officer Summit. We like your summary, Sam: what gets measured, gets done. That includes evaluating satisfaction with claims handling processes. Just track it! @DeloitteFinSvcs

It’s on Hulu now, guys.
Apparently MOONRISE KINGDOM is leaving Netflix on September 16th, which means you guys only have a few weeks to watch it one last time before all evidence of its existence is completely wiped off of the internet forever, basically.
