CPD WEBINAR: YEAR START EVENT - GLOBAL THREATS FACING THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY
What are the global threats facing the insurance industry right now and how are these impacting UK insurers and brokers? Today war, weather extremes and the cost of living crisis dominate public debate but the four biggest risks have not changed for a while now – cyber, regulation, climate change and technology. The sector appears to be rather relaxed regarding corporate governance but the failure to attract and retain the right talent is now rated in the top five risks. Will the wider impact of macro-economic factors continue to impact in terms of coverage, price/value and overall service delivery? This will be an interactive and wide-ranging talk and those attending will be actively encouraged to contribute with their own experiences. We will look at the differences in responses between insurers and brokers with brokers considering business conduct more of a concern than insurers.
