The webinars are not a promotion of Multi-Peril Insurance, nor a criticism of it. Neither is it a buyer’s guide to purchasing insurance, although buyers will benefit from the insights these webinars contain.

This webinar series aims to eliminate confusion and misunderstanding that characterises the discussions on Multi-Peril Insurance.

Jay Horton

The webinar presenter is Jay Horton, the Founder and Managing Director of Strategis Partners.

Strategis Partners brings over 25 years of experience in strategic and operational risk management using quantitative and qualitative methods. His expertise covers:

• Decision and Risk Analysis

• Agri-Supply Chain Optimisation

• Scenario Planning and Strategic Risk Management

• Growth Strategy and Program Reviews.

“Since the 1990s I have worked with agri-foods companies on risk manage-ment projects in Asia and Australia. Over this time, the practical arts of risk man-agement and insurance have advanced considerably. So much so, that we now know how to avoid the flawed models of crop insurance operating in North America and Europe. Reducing uncer-tainty in cropping does not have to be a costly business – for farmers, for insurers, or for governments.”
