“ Habib Kattansaid The modelling agencies have not covered themselves in glory in the last few years in any form. The predictive models are tools we all use but the robustness of those tools has not been truly tested. At best they were found wanting, at worst they were very flawed. They are selling themselves as the be all and end all for the market, but they are not. It is like ordering duck in a restaurant and getting chicken. ”

“ Warren Buffett says… “ Were the terrible hurricanes of 2004 & 2005 aberrations? Or were they our planet’s first warning that the climate of the 21st century will differ materially from what we’ve seen in the past? If the answer is yes, then 2006 will soon be perceived as a misleading period of calm preceding a series of devastating storms. These could rock the insurance industry. I do not know what lies ahead but I do know that it would be a huge mistake to bet that atmospheric changes are benign in their implications for insurers.
