The New Era of Risk Resilience in P&C Insurance
Wednesday, April 8, 2026
1:40-2:15 PM
Risk resiliency is a much-discussed topic but has made little progress due to operational challenges of cat events and increasing claims. Our short-term response is raising the cost for insurance. This is unsustainable for customers and the industry.
We need to change our legacy business methods and technologies for assessing and managing risks, because they no longer work. With risk resilience, there must first be a focus on assessment and recommendations for prevention as a part of providing protection. Risk resilient business processes and technologies assess, communicate, educate, and recommend prevention and mitigation strategies to all customers, regardless of insurance type.
It requires new thinking, new technology, data sources, and analytics to rethink the business fundamentals by understanding, adapting, and navigating this new era of risk. Our customers and society depend on insurance to do so.
This new era of risk must focus on proactive risk assessment, prevention and mitigation leveraging data, advanced analytics, and technology along with customer communication and engagement to follow-through on recommendations, to drive profitability and customer loyalty.
