Richard Allen, EVP, Professional Lines London Market/Europe Insurance, recently delivered the Keynote Address at the virtual EuroForum 2021 in Germany. Providing a global overview of the D&O market, he shared his perspective on the current state of the market, emerging trends, and what we can expect going forward.
Against the backdrop of what he says is possibly the hardest D&O market we have seen in the last 20 years, he cited accelerating activism, increasing cyber and privacy liability, and the on-going impact of COVID-19 as emerging trends, and highlighted that closer collaboration will be key as risks become more complex, regulations change and investigations increase.
