𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗪𝗛𝗜𝗧𝗘 𝗣𝗔𝗣𝗘𝗥 | Infrastructure investment could reach $106 trillion by 2040. But can it be insured? With annual disaster losses now exceeding $300 billion, insurability is fast becoming essential to whether infrastructure gets financed, especially in emerging markets. This new white paper examines how insurers assess physical risks, and what it takes to better align project preparation with underwriting expectations. Key findings: ➡️ Risk considerations will increasingly shape coverage and terms ➡️ Insurers are often engaged too late in the project lifecycle, limiting impact on long-term outcomes ➡️ Structural gaps, across data, procurement, and capacity, limit resilience from the outset ➡️ A mismatch between short insurance cycles and long-lived assets constrains effective risk management The paper outlines five enablers to embed resilience across the infrastructure lifecycle, from early stakeholder engagement to proactive risk transfer strategies.
