Insuring Risks Amid AI’s Constant Evolution

To stand out in today’s rapidly evolving property and casualty (P&C) insurance landscape, brokers must adopt a more strategic, consultative role beyond securing policies.

Product recalls, once rare, have become a constant threat, with nearly 2,500 recalls reported in the U.S. by November 2024. These events, often triggered by issues like labeling errors, production flaws, or undisclosed allergens, can severely impact a company’s finances and reputation.
