With AI embedded in everything from automated building systems to contract reviews, uncertainty over where losses would sit within insurance programmes is growing. Market participants warn that regulatory clarity may follow, echoing the silent cyber reforms of recent years.
Richard Puckey, head of compliance at Espria, warns that board-level reliance on cyber audit sign-off risks creating a false sense of security, as insurers and attackers alike shift their focus to real-time resilience and human behaviour.
Practical steps for risk managers to streamline processes, enhance decision-making, and improve collaboration with AI and automation
As farming becomes increasingly digitised, cyber risk is emerging as one of the most under-appreciated threats facing the sector. From automated machinery and connected supply chains to underinsurance and climate volatility, agriculture is evolving into a complex risk environment that challenges traditional assumptions about protection and resilience.
As Charlotte Hedemark takes up her dream role as FERMA president, she tells StrategicRISK editor Sara Benwell that helping risk managers to professionalise and elevate their strategic influence are key goals.
Cyber resilience cannot be bought off the shelf. Geoffrey Kerr, cyber security consultant and former VP global cyber security at Procter & Gamble, argues that organisations must move beyond technology-led spending and adopt a risk-based, strategy-first approach that embeds accountability, cultural change and measurable outcomes across the business.
Data centres are at the heart of the digital economy, but rapid growth, energy constraints and evolving risks are testing their resilience. At an SR:500 event in partnership with FM, experts discussed the challenges facing the sector and how risk managers are responding.
Previously a back-office function, resilience in the digital space is now in the spotlight. At an SR:500 roundtable in asssociation with Marsh, risk leaders explored how AI, regulation and culture are highlighting new strategies and demanding board-level attention.
As regulatory frameworks such as NIS2, DORA and the EU AI Act begin to overlap, organisations face mounting pressure to rethink how governance, risk and compliance operates in practice. Riskonnect’s Sherry Dillon explains why traditional compliance approaches are no longer enough.
In a new regulatory era heralded by DORA, accountability is on a whole new level. If you are a decision-maker, you could be held responsible for compliance failures far down your vendor chain. Companies must be insurance ready, warns BHSI’s Koen Cambré and Adrienne Sitbon.
Webinar: With boards more engaged, our next mission is clear: offer a wide-angle lens on how risks interact, and why risk management and opportunity can co-exist. Our panellists share candid insights on how to turn silos into the strategies a board wants to see.

As nat cats grow more severe, insurance gaps are widening - but parametric solutions might hold the key to resilience, says Dianna Nelson, a senior structurer at Swiss Re Corporate Solutions
