The crisis in Ukraine has added another dynamic to a marketplace already in turmoil from the lingering effects of the pandemic and global economic instability
Increasing global political polarization continues to provoke civil unrest and possible resurgence of terrorism.
A new generation of crisis analytics is being deployed to paint a clearer picture of potential human and financial consequences of terrorism and political violence.
The deployment of captive insurance vehicles continues to provide access to otherwise unavailable or uncompetitive capacity for terrorism risk.
In a market where premium is capacity-driven, the flexible rating mechanisms permitted within a captive structure allow exposures to be priced for risk exposure and divorced from unrelated perils — generating significant cost savings for many clients.
