Or if you're imagine you're a restaurant owner, you can't open your restaurant because your staff can't come into work. Or your customers can't come into your retail store and buy your products. So I think non-damaged business eruption is a critical product. What I don't like about that, and I said it's a mouthful, is like, my God, like, is an industry. Let's improve the marketing of this. No one wakes up in the morning and says they want to buy non-damaged business interruption. How about income protection? And this is why we branded our products around my income. Good morning, good evening, and happy new year. |
0:45.5 | Matthew Grant here. |
0:46.6 | And we're back over in New York this week, well, at least digitally, talking to Jamie |
0:50.7 | Crystal, CEO of MIC. |
0:53.1 | Now, if you're wondering what opportunities there are to support |
0:55.9 | people that are struggling to get insurance and how you can build a business on the back of it, |
1:00.3 | then this one's for you. So here we go. This is what we understand about MICs. MIC Global. You're a |

1:23.0 | that group, which is a slightly different about how the people typically might think about |
1:26.6 | microinsurance. |
1:31.9 | Your products are written in-house. You've got a Lloyd Syndicate and you've got a Guida-based company, MIC RE. And you have basically formed back in 2020 through the merger of STP group, |
1:38.7 | microinsure and Tonka BI. And Jamie, you are CEO of MIC. How's that for an elevator pitch? Perfect. Thank you, |
1:47.2 | Matthew. So in your own background, I see you worked as an insurer, you worked as a broker. |
