What stands out

Eric Andersen used a Bloomberg interview to treat geopolitical friction as a business opportunity, calling out clients who still have to move through the Strait of Hormuz and describing an "AI buildout" for underwriting and claims. For an insurer like American International Group (AIG) those are operational levers, not sound bites: war-risk premiums can lift revenue quickly, while AI can compress loss-adjustment costs over years. Andersen's comments matter because they map onto where returns can come from next, the cyclical premium cycle and the structural tech investments management is making.
