The leadership read

A change at the top rarely stays at the top. Universal Sompo's move reshapes the layer beneath it in the sector as a new leader sets priorities and the team re-forms. Watch the first two or three appointments that follow; they signal direction more reliably than any statement.

Market context: Backdrop: a 104.6 (Hot) Talent Market Index (up 3.6 on the month) with Asia activity rising (+1.7pts).

Universal Sompo: 1 signal in the last 90 days.
