  Rob Carron on The Evolving Risk Landscape of Luxury Yachts & Superyachts

  Sep 3, 202628 min

  Luxury yachts and superyachts represent far more than valuable assets. As the market continues to evolve, affluent families are navigating an increasingly complex set of risks that extend well beyond insuring the vessel itself. In this episode of Risk Ready , PRMA sits down with Rob Carron, U.S. Superyacht Practice Leader at Aon Private Risk Management, to explore the trends reshaping the luxury yacht market and the risks owners and their advisors need to consider. From chartering and crew management to liability pressures, claims trends and international exposures, this conversation examines when yacht ownership begins to function more like a complex operation than simply the ownership of a luxury asset. Listeners will also learn about some of the most common misconceptions among yacht owners, how chartering is changing the risk and insurance environment, and why yacht risk increasingly needs to be considered as part of a family's broader wealth and family office strategy. Whether you advise clients who own yachts, work with family offices, or simply want a better understanding of this highly specialized area of private risk management, this episode offers valuable insights into the evolving exposures surrounding luxury yacht ownership and the questions advisors should be asking their clients.

  Samantha Money on The Hidden Liability Gap in Private Aviation

  Jul 16, 202628 minS2

  Private aviation has become an increasingly important part of many affluent families' lifestyles, but insuring an aircraft is only one piece of a much larger risk management conversation. In this episode of Risk Ready , PRMA sits down with aviation insurance specialist Samantha Money to explore the complex liability, regulatory, and coverage issues that often go unnoticed by aircraft owners and even their trusted advisors. From the misconception that a personal umbrella policy extends to aviation-related claims to the unique challenges surrounding owner-flown aircraft, international travel, charter arrangements, and fractional ownership, this conversation sheds light on the hidden exposures that can leave affluent families under protected. Listeners will also learn why aviation specialists should be involved early, the most common mistakes made during aircraft acquisitions, and the critical questions wealth advisors, family offices, and insurance professionals should be asking to ensure an aviation program aligns with a client's broader risk management strategy. Whether you advise private aviation clients or simply want a better understanding of one of the most specialized areas of high-net-worth risk, this episode offers valuable insights into protecting complex assets in an increasingly sophisticated environment.
