About the Risk & Resilience research
During January and February 2023, we commissioned research company Opinion Matters to survey the opinions of over 2,000 business leaders and insurance buyers of businesses based in the UK, US, Canada and Singapore with international operations. Survey participants were asked about their views on insurers and insurance, as well as on four categories of risk:
- Environmental – including climate change and associated catastrophic risks, environmental damage, greenhouse gas emission, pandemic, food insecurity and energy transition risk.
- Cyber & Technology – including the threat of disruption, failure to keep pace with changing technology, cyber risk and IP risk.
- Business – including supply chain instability, business interruption, boardroom risk, crime, reputational and employer risk and failure to comply with ESG regulations and reporting requirements.
- Geopolitical – including strikes and civil disruption, changes in legislation and regulation, economic uncertainty, inflation and war & terror.
