In 2018, natural catastrophes wreaked havoc around the world. Windstorms caused massive losses in the United States, Japan and the Philippines. Droughts hit the United States and Europe, and unusually large wildfires caused devastation in California. Experts have suggested that at least a portion of the world’s global catastrophes in 2018 can be attributed to climate change.

A key insight from Aon’s 2019 Global Risk Management Survey is that organizations need to be more prepared for the broad range of risks that threaten their ability to continue growing, protecting their brand and serving clients and stakeholders. Top-of-mind concerns include a slowing economy, damage to reputation and brand and accelerated rates of change in market factors reflecting apprehension about global trade conditions.

This note is about the activities and aspirations of the insurance industry in working to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals. I believe the industry has made a noteworthy contribution to the SDGs, and in the process demonstrated that a public/private partnership can achieve objectives that neither sector could achieve on its own.
A discussion group on resilience was held at the Global Insurance Forum at the InterContinental Hotel Berlin, Germany on July 9th & July 10th, 2018.
This group discussion evolved around how resilience extends to personal, community, organizational ability to prevent and recover from shocks. Such shocks can be environmental, financial, social. The discussion focused on vulnerable populations, yet extends to all individuals and organizations..
