One big thing: In this Global Insight recap episode of the On Aon podcast, we revisit some of the key conversations from Aon leaders from the first half of the year, connecting themes across geopolitical risk, capital flows and emerging financial infrastructure.

Zoom out: Across episodes on the Strait of Hormuz, stablecoin, private credit and Aon’s Resilience Quotient, a clear pattern emerges — risk is more interconnected, and the systems that support global trade, capital and decision-making are evolving together.

Rather than viewing these topics in isolation, the discussion highlights how leaders are navigating change through a more integrated lens:

• Lee Meyrick explores how rising geopolitical risk is shaping global trade and the role of insurance in keeping economies moving — How Insurance Shapes Trade in the Strait of Hormuz
• John King reframes stablecoin as a payments and operating model conversation, not just a crypto topic — Stablecoin Explained: What Business Leaders Need to Know
• Russ Ivinjack highlights why alignment of interest remains central to private credit markets — Private Credit’s Next Chapter: Leading Through Structure and Alignment
• Bridget Gainer discusses how resilience is shifting from a defensive measure to a driver of better decision-making and long-term performance — Resilience as a Growth Strategy: Inside Aon’s Resilience Quotient
