Insurers must scale for tomorrow today

By 2050, the world will face an unprecedented demographic inversion – for the first time in human history, seniors will outnumber youth globally, excluding a relatively young Africa. This seismic shift will fundamentally reshape the property and casualty insurance industry, transforming risk profiles, product demands, and market opportunities for decades to come. The global population will reach 9.66 billion by 2050 – effectively adding a new China to the world – with the dependency ratio surging to 26% from 16% today.

When celebrations turn violent: riots after sporting wins

In a world where victory on the field can lead to turmoil in the streets, planning for the festivities is just as important as planning for the game itself. From triumph to tragedy. Winning on the field can spark just as much energy off it. Sports celebrations – once symbols of civic pride, have become flashpoints for violence — not because of provocation or tragedy, but due to the spontaneous overflow of collective emotion amplified by team rivalries and social media. Vandalism, confrontations, and dangerous disruptions pose growing risks for businesses.

The evolving regulatory landscape

The Pension Schemes Bill will fundamentally reshape the defined contribution market. If implemented well it could deliver two critical outcomes for the automatic enrolment system: putting value for money at the heart of everything and turning a savings system into a pensions system. There are three to five years’ worth of reforms ahead and there are a number of steps that schemes can take now to get ready. We’d urge schemes and trustees to look now at how they are outcome-focused, building scale, are data-led and supporting savers into retirement.
