Report Outbreaks, Epidemics, and Pandemics: Preparedness and Response Strategies The report identifies the main challenges that organizations may face during the novel coronavirus health emergency and other outbreaks and looks at actions that risk professionals can take to mitigate these risks -
Perspective How to Put People First As the Coronavirus Outbreak Grows While the WHO has declared the coronavirus outbreak a public emergency of international concern, it’s important that businesses take steps to plan for and protect against the possibility that the outbreak worsens. But they also must avoid overreacting or implementing certain measures prematurely. -
Report The Global Risks Report 2020 The 15th edition of the Global Risks Report, published by the World Economic Forum with support from Marsh & McLennan, provides a rich perspective on the major threats that may impact global prosperity in 2020 and over the next decade. The report draws on feedback from nearly 800 global experts and decision-makers who were asked to rank their concerns in terms of likelihood and impact. -
Perspective Intensifying Confrontations and Deepening Long-Term Threats: The Prospects for 2020 and Beyond The new decade holds immense promise for societal, economic and technological advances. At the same time, as highlighted in the 2020 Global Risks Report prepared by the World Economic Forum with the support of Marsh & McLennan and other partners, the world faces intensifying confrontations between and within countries, as well as escalating long-term threats from climate change and biodiversity loss. Emerging technologies are also amplifying some short-term risks and creating new risks, for example, with the increasingly pervasive deployments of artificial intelligence. -
Perspective How to Protect Data in an Age of Digital Seamlessness The trend toward digital seamlessness is accelerating; industries from finance to health care are increasingly using seamless technologies to make it easier for consumers to use their products and services. -
Perspective Eight Reasons the Healthcare Industry needs to Step up its security game now Welltok and Oliver Wyman recently hosted a webinar to demystify data security, with a focus on why we all need to play a role in protecting health data. Here are some of the most salient points from David MacLeod, CIO/CISO at Welltok, and Paul Mee, Partner and Cyber Platform Lead at Oliver Wyman. If a number of the points are alarming - that’s the point! This is a critically important and sensitive topic that is too often overlooked or misunderstood. -
Perspective When Vision and Value Collide A collision is taking place in financial services between the vision mindset and the value mindset. How firms resolve this conflict – between the desire to reimagine the business for the long-term and the need to remain disciplined and profitable in the short-term – will define the industry in the coming years. -
Perspective Retailers Taking Alternative Insurance Routes Hurricanes. Earthquakes. Wildfires. Record catastrophe losses in 2017 and 2018 have turned the tide of property insurance pricing, which had been trending downwards for several consecutive quarters. -
Report TRIPRA’s Early Renewal Keeps Terrorism Insurance Market Stable The reauthorization of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (TRIPRA) will help ensure the viability of the terrorism insurance market and reduce uncertainty for terrorism insurance buyers. -
Perspective Retailers and Restaurants Shouldn’t Rush to Enter the Budding CBD Market Insurance Routes From edibles to cosmetics and skin care, the market for products containing cannabidiol (CBD) is surging. And after long being banned by the federal government, regulators are now rethinking their approach to CBD- and hemp-derived products. But the regulatory outlook is far from clear — in fact, significant risks remain, and retailers must do their homework before restocking their shelves with CBD products. -
Perspective Tackling the Retail and Restaurant Industry’s Technology Conundrum Despite their myriad advantages, new technologies, especially connected ones, could become major liabilities if infiltrated by cyber-attackers. But notwithstanding the potentially ruinous risks, only 28% of industry respondents to the Marsh and Microsoft survey said they evaluate the risks of new technologies both prior to and after adoption, while only 5% evaluate risks during all possible stages of the lifecycle. And more worryingly, 8% of industry respondents don’t carry out any evaluation. While adopting the latest technologies can lead to operational benefits, including greater efficiency and lower costs, businesses that do not take comprehensive measures to understand, measure, and address the risks associated with these new technologies could be compounding their cyber risk. And the evolving nature of both cyber risk and technology means that continuous assessment is essential to determine whether and how these technologies are expanding a company’s risk profile. -

Perspective Deep Dive on Decarbonization of Maritime Industry Climate change is an increasingly urgent global issue that crosses sectors and geographies.
