Political Violence & War Coverage

Recent developments in the Middle East have led insurers to take a closer look at political violence and war risk across the region. For organisations with operations, assets or supply chains connected to the Gulf, this has created a more fluid environment for insurance discussions. Political violence cover exists to support organisations through periods of uncertainty. While uncertainty itself is not new, the pace at which market conditions are evolving has increased, making early awareness and timely conversations more helpful than usual.Recent developments in the Middle East have led insurers to take a closer look at political violence and war risk across the region.

Organisation Recovery

Volatility and uncertainty are no longer intermittent challenges for businesses — they are part of day-to-day operations. Against the backdrop of tensions in the Middle East, businesses are navigating an environment where disruption can emerge quickly and from multiple directions. Yet what shapes performance amid this volatility has less to do with the disruption itself than with an organisation’s ability to respond, adapt and recover. Research from McKinsey & Company and SAP found that only around 25% of companies consider themselves to be fully resilient[1,2]. Those that can proactively build resilience in turn gain a competitive advantage. This moment calls for organisations to take a more deliberate look at how they strengthen readiness, resilience and protection across their people, finances and operations.
