The Future of the Profession a Year on

In March 2020, we predicted that if risk and insurance professionals had the right knowledge and skills, this would create an opportunity to increase their level of influence. Then the pandemic struck. During the pandemic, leadership often lacked intelligence and data to support decisions, some supply chains were caught off-guard, and business processes were often found wanting. Risk and insurance professionals helped organisations overcome many of these challenges as trusted strategic advisors to their organisations.
