Branislav Urosevic is a reporter for Insurance Business Canada, one of the country's leading B2B publications covering the insurance industry for brokers, underwriters, risk managers, and industry leaders.

Before joining Insurance Business, he served as a senior journalist at Bloomberg Adria, where he covered financial markets, macroeconomics, and central and commercial banking across the Balkans. He began his career reporting on global business and financial markets at TeleTrader and SeeNews.

At Insurance Business Canada, Branislav covers the full breadth of the industry – from commercial and personal lines to leadership, technology, and emerging risks. He holds Bloomberg Market Concepts and Bloomberg ESG certificates, reflecting a grounding in financial analysis that informs his approach to complex industry topics.

He is also a contributor to Insurance Business's global network, which reaches more than 14 million readers worldwide.

Outside of his reporting, Branislav is an avid reader of crime fiction and enjoys long road trips – a habit that, he will tell you, is excellent for thinking through a story angle.

How I think about writing for this industry…

“My job is mostly listening. You hear something that wasn’t necessarily meant to be said, and you follow it with a question. The best stories usually come from there.”
