The Global Economic Picture - Good, Bad, or Ugly?

Can Insurance Keep Up with the Client in a Time of Turbulence?
There is much talk about insurance markets providing support to energy clients as they seek to invest for the future. But, in reality what does this look like in the current market place, what are the opportunities and constraints and what steps should insurance be taking to actively support their clients at a time of uncertainty and change?

The Client's View of the World
This session will explore how energy clients are affected by the recent changes in global political leadership, geopolitical tensions, economic turbulence and the uncertainty surrounding net zero targets. Insurance markets need to be current on their clients needs and this session will aim to provide valuable insights and directions.
