THE POWER OF

PARTNERSHIP Helping agents make it to the green.

Stuart Smith Insurance Agency commercial account manager Cole Smith and Smart Choice State Director Matt Milnor.

For this independent insurance agent and former college varsity player and tournament competitor, partnering with Smart Choice was a hole-in-one. As a third-generation independent insurance agent, Cole knows placing coverage for commercial accounts can be tricky. While other agents might turn down those clients, Cole finds a way to help them by leveraging the Smart Choice network.

“I know some of Smart Choice’s competitors, they have a pay-to-play model that involves giving them a bunch of money up front. That might be worthwhile if those networks offered access to more carriers and better options, but from what I have seen, that’s simply not the case. Some of them also have stipulations that can harm agencies – for example, requiring them to meet quotas or pay money back.”

Inc. Magazine has selected Smart Choice as a Power Partner award winner every year since the program’s inception four years ago -- as a company devoted to providing agencies with the tools and resources they need to start, run, and grow their businesses. Smart Choice was the only insurance network to be recognized.

A Risky World

EDITORIAL

W

orldwide business leaders face growing risk challenges including increased technology and cyber risks, societal challenges, and deepening geopolitical divides. These risks will continue to shape the business landscape over the next 12 months, say Marsh and Zurich executives in response to a recently released report by the World Economic Forum.

Uncertainty is the defining theme of the WEF’s Global Risks Report 2026, which captures insights from experts worldwide on key risks that affect business leaders today (in 2026), in the near future (to 2028), and in the long term (to 2036).

Geoeconomic confrontation is top of mind for respondents and was selected as the risk most likely to trigger a material global crisis in 2026. This is followed by state-based armed conflict. International cooperative movements were cited as a growing and important concern.

The report noted: “As cooperative mechanisms crumble, with governments retreating from multilateral frameworks, stability is under siege. A contested multipolar landscape is emerging where confrontation is replacing collaboration, and trust—the currency of cooperation—is losing its value.”

This divide will continue to add to the risk landscape, experts say.

“Deepening divisions are at the center of the societal risks we all now face, from social fragmentation and inequality, to declining health and wellbeing,” said Andrew George, president, Specialty, Marsh Risk, in a statement on the report. “Despite the growing severity of these global risks, major governments are moving away from many established frameworks designed to tackle our shared challenges.”

Over the next two years, the report ranked the top five global risks as: 1. geoeconomic confrontation, 2. misinformation and disinformation, 3. societal polarization, 4. extreme weather events, and 5. state-based armed conflict.

Over the next 10 years, the report ranked the top five risks as: 1. extreme weather events, 2. biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse, 3. critical change to earth systems, 4. misinformation and disinformation, and 5. adverse outcomes of AI technologies.

One global risk not captured as an immediate top concern is the growing threat to infrastructures worldwide, said Peter Giger, group chief risk officer, Zurich, in a statement.

“Despite extreme weather, cyberattacks, and geopolitical conflicts posing escalating threats, disruptions to critical infrastructure ranked just 23rd among global risks for the next decade. This is a dangerous oversight,” Giger said. From power grids strained by record heat to coastal cities at risk from rising seas, critical infrastructure systems are underprepared and underfunded, he said. “When infrastructure fails, everything else is at risk.”

The report gathered survey insights from 1,300 experts and 11,000 business leaders, alongside interviews with hundreds of experts, to assess how they view risks in the near, short, and long term. The Global Risks Report is produced by the Global Risks Initiative at the WEF’s Centre for the New Economy and Society. Marsh and Zurich are partners of the WEF and members of its Global Risks Advisory Board.

‘This is a dangerous oversight.’

News & Markets 10 Highest Class-Action Settlements in 2025 Eclipsed $70B Total: Duane Morris

By Chad Hemenway

T

he value of the 10 highest classaction settlements in 2025 exceeded $70 billion for the first time ever.

In fact, the total was nearer to $80 billion across all areas of litigation, according to law firm Duane Morris.

For the fourth straight year, total settlements eclipsed the $40 billion mark.

Gerald L. Maatman, co-author of the Duane Morris Class Action Review and chair of the firm’s Class Action Defense Group, said the “implications are staggering.”

“To put it into perspective, that amount is larger than the annual budgets of multiple U.S. states and eclipses the GDP of more than half the world’s nations,” he said. “At the same time, the gravitational pull of these massive outcomes is attracting elite talent to the plaintiffs’ bar and providing massive incentive for plaintiffs’ lawyers to increase their filings and the sophistication of the strategies they employ.”

Boards, investors, and insurers must proactively plan for class-action litigation, added Maatman, who has been reviewing class-action litigation every year since 2003.

Continued high settlements in the privacy class actions are drawing the attention of the plaintiffs’ bar, who are now targeting session replay technology, website chatbots, and website pixels.

“The plaintiffs’ bar continues to rely on a consistent recipe: pair modern, ubiquitous technologies with decades-old statutory schemes that impose statutory damages per violation. The result is outsized exposure for routine business practices,” said Duane Morris. In addition, data-privacy class actions in 2025 totaled over 1,800—more than 25% growth over 2024 and more than 200% growth since 2022.

According to the near 750-page review of more than 1,761 decisions in the past year, judges continue to certify class-action

litigation at a high rate—68% of motions granted in 2025. Plaintiffs filed more than 13,000 class-action lawsuits in federal courts alone, which is more than 36 new class-action filings every day.

The extensive report shows the amount of class actions filed is a “substantial” increase over 2024 and indicates that these types of lawsuit aren’t outliers but “a constant presence.”

“With the traditional arbitration defense being tested and eroded, widening circuit splits driving forum shopping, and the continued rise of Private Attorneys General Act claims, there are many threats looming to class action defense,” said Duane Morris partner Jennifer A. Riley, co-author of the review and vice chair of the firm’s Class Action Defense Group.

Experian: AI Agents Could Overtake Human Error as Leading Cause of Data Breaches

By Chad Hemenway

A

rtificial intelligence continues to be at the center of Experian’s annual breach forecast for 2026, heavily influencing the scope, frequency, and cost of cyber incidents.

AI makes its way into many of the predictions in Experian’s Data Breach Industry Forecast. Michael Bruemmer, vice president of global data breach resolution, and Jim Steven, head of crisis & data response services, UK, said agentic AI systems could be exploited by savvy hackers who might inject their AI agents “to disrupt the 8 | INSURANCE JOURNAL | JANUARY 26, 2026

orchestration or governance of the victim’s AI agents.”

“At a minimum, this disruption could impact an organization’s operations or siphon money, goods, or information,” or perform ransomware-like operations, said Experian. “AI agents are the next frontier for fraud and cybercrime, and we predict this may overtake human error as the leading cause of data breaches.”

With the use of AI, hackers might also be able to extract data at an unprecedented rate and “stitch together enriched identity profiles.” Experian warns: “Get ready for a potentially massive spike in identity theft.”

Or, AI capabilities could bolster the spread of mutating malicious code—polymorphic or metamorphic malware.

AI could also be used in conjunction with quantum computing, which many companies see as one of the largest cybersecurity threats over the next handful of years. Experian said quantum computing is “already driving increased attacks,” and it could be used to break encryption methods, which for now is thwarted by AI security technology. Experian predicts data-breach-prevention firms will accelerate quantum versions of their offerings to stay ahead of potential fraud.

Closer Look: High Net Worth High-Net-Worth Risk Appetite Drops as Some Regions Show Stabilization

By Allen Laman

R

isk appetite among highnet-worth individuals has dropped sharply, according to a new high-networth outlook from HUB International. Per the report, only 25% of HNW individuals are willing to assume more risk for premium savings—down from 39% in 2023.

HUB found that in response to market volatility and coverage gaps, many are raising deductibles, accepting carve-outs, and making more conservative insurance decisions, while also investing in resilience measures such as wildfire-resistant materials,

water-detection systems, and cyber monitoring.

Seventy-seven percent of respondents to HUB’s private client outlook survey said that they’ve struggled to secure adequate property insurance for their homes. Markets with wildfire, flood, or coastal exposures—such as California, New York, New Jersey, and Texas—face limited capacity, the brokerage said in a press release.

“It’s been a very tumultuous handful of years,” said Katherine Frattarola, head of HUB Private Client, which services high- and ultra-highnet-worth homeowners.

In an interview with

14 | INSURANCE JOURNAL | JANUARY 26, 2026

Insurance Journal, Frattarola shared that “the good news is … we have started to see a stabilization or softening” of the high-value property insurance rate environment in some geographies. “Whether or not this is a long-term correction or short-term, it’s anyone’s guess,” she added.

Frattarola explained that carriers have worked to achieve rate adequacy, noting that the impacts of recent weather events on high-net-worth individuals—not counting January’s wildfires in Southern California—have been somewhat muted. Reinsurers have wrapped their arms around risk, she said, and HNW carriers

have improved their models and remediated their books.

“That doesn’t mean that rates aren’t expensive,” Frattarola explained. “It doesn’t mean that rates are going to be what they were five years ago. It doesn’t mean that folks are going to smile when they get their renewal.

But what it does mean is that we’re not seeing these massive swings, broadly speaking, as we have in the past.”

Some previously challenging regions have even seen rates drop. Among these pockets of improvement is Florida, where HUB reports that recent reforms have attracted new carriers to the state. In some INSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

cases, rates have fallen by as much as 30%.

But these locations are the exception, HUB reported in its outlook. The brokerage forecasts that U.S. high-net-worth homeowners rates will remain flat to increase by 5% in 2026.

“With profitability beginning to recover, carriers are shifting their focus toward strategic risk management—aligning pricing with individual property characteristics and demonstrated mitigation efforts,” the report said. “Homeowners who invest in protective measures, such as roof upgrades, water detection systems, or wildfire defensible space, are most likely to benefit from more favorable pricing and renewal terms.”

HUB reported that market conditions have also improved through refinement to policy structure and underwriting practices that enable carriers to maintain profitability through means other than rate increases.

Some examples of these adjustments include capping certain coverages, such as loss of use, to a percentage of Coverage A; adjusting deductibles for wind and hail exposures; and incentivizing higher All Other Peril (AOP) deductibles to encourage shared risk.

Meanwhile, HUB projected that wind-related rates for high-net-worth policyholders will remain flat or decline by up to 10% next year, while wildfire rates are expected to increase between 5% and 10%.

Frattarola explained that in the past three years, the insurance market for HNW homeowners has been “fairly volatile,” particularly in catastrophe-prone areas.

The severity of these weather INSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

events and their increased frequency have, in part, shaped this volatility, she said.

“You look at where people live, particularly high-networth [individuals], [and] you wind up seeing disproportionate concentration in areas where there’s a lot of risk,” Frattarola said.

Post-COVID supply chain issues drove up replacement costs, she added, and high-dollar jury awards against carriers also contributed to inflationary increases. When states failed to approve significant rate increases quickly enough, carriers exited markets, and the burden was placed on homeowners, Frattarola said.

But, about a year ago, as Frattarola saw each of these macroeconomic forces even out, she began to see an avenue for high-net-worth homeowner rate stabilization.

And while some areas will continue to be difficult to write policies in, “overall, with a blended geographic view, we’ve started to see things level out,” she said.

In a separate interview, Yas Nahali, executive vice president at Amwins, said the national high-net-worth property market can be broken into “micro-regions.” Some parts of Florida, for example, are experiencing softening rates, while other areas, like Los Angeles, remain hard.

She has seen a lot of MGA activity and standard markets reapproaching these previously challenging regions on their surplus lines papers with tighter underwriting or mitigation requirements. Several companies took time to recalibrate, Nahali said, and have come back to certain areas for certain risks rather aggressively.

She said now is the time for brokers to negotiate and secure the best terms and conditions for their high-net-worth clients—and use all the tools needed to put together truly comprehensive coverage.

“I think this is the time to work really hard on the behalf of the client, because the last few years, we really haven’t had the opportunity to negotiate terms and conditions,” she said. “And now we do. And I think it’s really important to start going to bat for the client again and then also using all of your tools to put a robust program together.”

‘Homeowners who invest in protective measures, such as roof upgrades, water detection systems, or wildfire defensible space, are most likely to benefit from more favorable pricing and renewal terms.’

In follow-up correspondence, Nahali added that since brokers have the unique opportunity to review proposals from various insurers, they can skillfully negotiate terms and conditions that favor clients in areas where certain insurers feel more at ease.

“For instance, while some markets might impose strict sublimity on water damage aggregates, others might be more lenient and open to higher limits,” she wrote in an email. “By capitalizing on these variations, we can enhance the coverage in a manner that aligns with the insurer’s comfort level and serves the client’s

best interest. This creates a win-win situation for all parties involved.”

The 2026 HUB Outlook High-Net-Worth Survey includes insights from 200 high-net-worth individuals and their advisors, focusing on issues related to risk tolerance, property exposures, and insurance decision-making.

Key recommendations from the study to HNW clients include: • Bolstering resilience by investing in wildfire-resistant landscaping, water sensors, and cybersecurity.

• Updating brokers before and after renovations to ensure accurate valuations and reduce claim issues.

• Considering cyber and reputation-management policies for emerging digital threats.

• Regularly updating brokers on life events, property acquisitions, and changing risks to maintain aligned coverage.

In its annual private client outlook, HUB also forecasted personal umbrella rate increases of between 10% and 12%. The brokerage reported that rising loss severity in auto liability remains the key factor driving rate increases in the personal umbrella market.

“Carriers are placing heightened emphasis on geographic exposure, particularly in jurisdictions with elevated litigation activity, often referred to as ‘judicial hellholes,’” HUB wrote in the report. “Clients residing in these regions can expect higher premiums, stricter underwriting scrutiny, and reduced carrier appetite, as insurers work to manage volatility tied to large verdicts and escalating settlement costs.”

By Bill Wilson policies. His article cited a California Supreme Court decision that overturned a claim denial based on a vacancy exclusion. In TRB Investments, Inc. v. Fireman’s Fund Ins. Co., 40 Cal. 4th 19 (Cal. 2006), the California Supreme Court found that an exception in the exclusion for a building “under construction” also applied to a building being “renovated.”

The policy in question excluded loss or damage to a building that has been vacant more than 60 consecutive days for loss or 18 | INSURANCE JOURNAL | JANUARY 26, 2026

damage caused by vandalism, sprinkler leakage, glass breakage, water damage, or theft. An exception to this exclusion was made for buildings “under construction.”

Similar vacancy exclusions are found in most commercial property and homeowners policies, as well as an “under construction” exception to the exclusion.

‘Under Construction’

The question is, what constitutes a building being “under construction”? Keep in mind that our discussion here applies only within the context of a “vacant” building, and vacancy may or may not be explicitly defined in the policy. Many, if not most, homeowners policies do not define vacancy. The usual judicial presumption is that a building is vacant when it is unoccupied and materially devoid of contents.

In the case of commercial properties, most policy forms include a specific definition of vacancy. For example, ISO forms issued to a tenant that occupies part of a building define vacancy to mean that the space they occupy “is vacant when it does not contain enough business personal property to conduct customary operations.” If the policy form is written for a building owner or a tenant that occupies the entire building, vacancy is based on a percentage of total square footage not being used for customary operations of the tenant or owner.

As for the “under construction” issue, for example, in the current ISO CP 00 10 Building and Personal Property Coverage Form, “Buildings under construction or renovation are not considered vacant.” The “renovation” language was added to this INSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

form in 1995. In earlier editions of the CP 00 10 form, only the “under construction” language was used in the coverage grant for vacant buildings.

I don’t happen to have a copy of the 1995 ISO countrywide commercial property form changes filing or circular, so I can’t explain precisely what the reason was for the introduction of the “renovation” language. The reason could lie in the logic of the aforementioned TRB Investments court case as explained by the court’s decision. They examined cases from other states that found that “under construction” referred only to new building construction, whereas “renovation” referred to remodeling, repairs, etc., to an existing building. They also examined, and agreed with, other cases that found “under construction” and “renovation” to be essentially synonymous. The logic for that interpretation is explained as follows.

The question is, what constitutes a building being ‘under construction?’

When a court reviews policy language, especially when a case involves an allegation that the language is ambiguous, the court seeks to determine the intent of both parties with regard to coverage. As Merlin points out in his article that sparked this month’s column, in my “When Words Collide…” book, one of the insurance contract interpretive doctrines I discuss is the premise that “The purpose of insurance is to insure.”

Courts have pretty universally opined that exclusions are interpreted narrowly against insurers who unilaterally draft most insurance policies and insuring agreements and exceptions to exclusions are interpreted broadly in favor of the insured. Courts, as a result, attempt to evaluate the intent of a policy provision to reflect the likely reason for the language on the part of the insurer while upholding, to some degree, the reasonable expectations of the insured.

Exception to Vacancy

Why is there an exception to the

INSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

vacancy exclusion for buildings “under construction”? The likely reason is that the kinds of perils excluded by vacancy clauses (e.g., vandalism, water damage and sprinkler leakage, glass breakage, and theft) are far more likely to occur when no one is around. When a building is under construction, there are typically workers present during much of the day. The court concluded, in the TRB Investments case, that workers are equally present, perhaps more so, during renovations to an existing building as they are for one undergoing new construction.

Perhaps this reasonable expectation of coverage for a building being renovated was the reason for ISO expanding the vacancy exception in 1995? If someone reading this has a copy of that filing or circular, perhaps they can answer that question in the comments section of the online edition of this column.

That being said, what isn’t widely known is that often when ISO broadens coverage in a policy form as part of a countrywide revision, it’s at the request of independent agents who have encountered denials of claims that agents, as advocates for their customers, feel should be covered.

The Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (the Big “I”) trade association’s Technical Affairs Committee meets annually with ISO at their home office. Similarly, a large group of state Big “I” affiliates hold the Mid-America Insurance Conference annually with representatives of ISO. Attendance at the Mid-America conference is also open to all independent agency insurance companies.

To illustrate why one of these forums might have initiated the 1995 commercial property change, I know for a fact that ISO changed the vacancy exclusion exception in their 2022 countrywide homeowners forms filing in response to a request by the Big “I.” Prior to 2022, ISO’s homeowners forms

had a vacancy exclusion that made an exception for dwellings “being constructed.” There was no mention of renovation.

In 2009, the Big “I” Technical Affairs Committee asked ISO to revise the exception to include remodeling and renovation.

This was based on denials of vandalism claims involving homes being remodeled.

The argument made was, “From the standpoint of risk, it doesn’t make sense that there is coverage for a vacant building during construction when the building is largely unsecured while there isn’t coverage during remodeling or renovation when the building is more likely to be secured.”

ISO did not revise the vacancy exception in their 2011 countrywide filing, but finally did so in 2022. In current homeowners forms, the vacancy exception says: “A dwelling being constructed, remodeled, renovated or repaired is not considered vacant.”

Perhaps the “remodeled, renovated or repaired” language should be added to ISO’s commercial property forms to replace the lone “renovated” exception language.

Otherwise, at some point an insurer may forget the doctrine that “the purpose of insurance is to insure” and deny claims by distinguishing between renovating and repair or remodeling.

Idea Exchange: Minding Your Business Industry Trends to Exploit for 2026: Part Two

A

gency owners must stay informed about significant new trends in the insurance industry. The following is part two of a two-part article highlighting seven industry trends insurance agencies should track for 2026.

For part one, see Insurance Journal’s December 1 issue.

4. Group Benefits and Health Insurance

By Catherine Oak and

As we enter 2026, escalating medical inflation—projected at nearly 8% for employer-sponsored plans—the tight talent market, and AI-driven innovations are Bill Schoeffler transforming group health insurance. This creates prime opportunities for agents to guide clients toward sustainable, employee-centric strategies that control costs while boosting retention.

Premium hikes are relentless, with family coverage averaging $27,000 annually and workers contributing over $6,800.

Employers are shifting to self-funded and level-funded models for midsize groups, 20 | INSURANCE JOURNAL | JANUARY 26, 2026

embracing narrower networks, reference pricing, and site-of-care optimization to curb expenses. Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) are under scrutiny, with biosimilars and outcomes-based contracts emerging to tame specialty drug costs, which now drive over 50% of trends.

Benefits are evolving beyond physical health to encompass mental health, musculoskeletal (MSK) support, fertility, caregiving, and financial wellness. Virtualfirst primary care and upgraded Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) are standard, with outcomes-based vendor guarantees ensuring ROI. Incentives such as premium discounts or extra PTO encourage engagement with mindfulness apps and stress workshops. Creative group benefit brokers design a post-tax $500–$2,000 LSA (Lifestyle Savings Account) for gym, pet care, childcare, or commuting. It can be bundled with an FSA/HSA education and compliance checklist and sold as a miniCAF 125 plan.

Gen Z and Millennials demand tailored options: defined contribution plans, buy-up credits, and expansive voluntary benefits menus featuring critical illness, accident, pet coverage, and student loan aid. Data analytics enable risk-stratified navigation, delivering personalized incentives and care pathways.

Telehealth is ubiquitous, augmented by

AI triage, remote monitoring, and expert second opinions. Agents who use services that streamline multi-vendor portals— integrating enrollment, claims, and HRIS data—foster seamless experiences for the insured and deeper client loyalty.

Stricter rules on price transparency, MHPAEA parity, and data privacy loom large. Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements (ICHRAs) and captives appeal to niche employers but require robust administration to mitigate pitfalls.

Bottom Line: In 2026, forward-thinking agents who champion data-driven, integrated benefits—blending cost control, personalization, and well-being—will become irreplaceable partners, helping employers thrive amid rising costs and evolving expectations.

5. Natural Disasters’ Effect on Insurance

As 2026 unfolds, the relentless escalation of natural disasters—fueled by climate volatility, urban sprawl into vulnerable zones, and socioeconomic shifts—will amplify insured losses beyond 2025’s staggering $145 billion benchmark.

Global economic losses from events such as hurricanes, wildfires, floods, and severe storms are projected to exceed $300 billion annually, with the insurance protection gap narrowing to under 40% but still leavINSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

ing billions uninsured. Hotspots such as California (wildfires), Florida (hurricanes), and Southeast Asia (typhoons) face acute availability crises, prompting premium surges of 10-15% and non-renewals in high-risk corridors. For agents, this signals a pivot from reactive claims handling to strategic advisory roles in risk mitigation.

Insurers are doubling down on AI-driven risk modeling and predictive analytics, integrating satellite imagery, IoT (Internet of Things) sensor networks, and hyper-local climate forecasts to refine underwriting and dynamic pricing. Machine learning algorithms now simulate “black swan” scenarios with 20% greater accuracy, enabling proactive policy adjustments and reducing surprise losses. Agents can leverage these tools to consult on portfolio diversification, blending traditional P/C with emerging cat bonds for capital relief.

Resilience incentives are mainstreaming: Expect widespread adoption of discounts— up to 10%—for FORTIFIED-compliant homes and Firewise-certified communities, as insurers like USAA expand offerings to seismic retrofits and flood barriers.

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) will proliferate as governments mandate enhanced reserves and transparency under evolving regulations.

Tech frontiers like drone assessments and real-time telematics will slash claims cycles by 50%, fostering trust. Ultimately, 2026 demands that agents champion “resilience-as-a-service.” Educate clients on adaptive strategies—from green retrofits to parametric hybrids—that transform peril into profit while safeguarding communities against an unforgiving climate.

Insurers offer more customized policies that cater to specific needs and risks associated with different geographical areas.

New insurance products are emerging to address the changing risk landscape, such as “parametric insurance policies.”

These policies pay out based on predefined parameters, such as the magnitude of an earthquake or the wind speed of a hurricane, allowing for faster claims processing.

“Microinsurance” is designed to protect low-income individuals and communities; in this case, it provides affordable coverage for natural disaster risks. Governments INSURANCEJOURNAL.COM

and regulatory bodies are implementing stricter regulations to ensure insurers maintain adequate reserves and adopt sound risk management practices. Publicprivate partnerships are also becoming more common in addressing the financial challenges of natural disasters.

What to Expect: Ongoing challenges are expected in the U.S. insurance industry throughout 2026, particularly in personal lines, as regulators, planners, insurers, and property owners navigate the evolving landscape of property risk and ownership shaped by natural disasters.

6. Insurtech

In 2026, insurtech surges forward, propelled by AI maturation, IoT (internet of Things) ubiquity, and seamless digital ecosystems, redefining insurance from reactive coverage to proactive, hyper-personalized ecosystems. With global premiums stabilizing amid competition, technology enables agents to pivot from transaction brokers to strategic advisors, unlocking $4.8 billion in AI-driven value alone. This evolution promises 30% operational efficiency gains while closing protection gaps for underserved segments.

AI and machine learning dominate, embedding predictive analytics into underwriting, claims, and fraud detection for precision pricing and 40% faster settlements. Generative AI powers dynamic policy tweaks via real-time behavioral data, while NLP-enhanced (Natural Language Programming) chatbots and virtual assistants elevate service, resolving 70% of queries instantly. Agents can leverage these for tailored risk consultations, blending historical claims with climate and health signals to outpace commoditized competitors.

IoT and telematics explode, with the market hitting $132 billion in 2026—up from $63 billion in 2024 at a 44.8% CAGR—driving usage-based insurance (UBI) beyond autos into homes, pets, and SMBs. Wearables and smart sensors enable proactive interventions, slashing claims by 25% through real-time alerts on driving habits or property vulnerabilities.

For agents, this means bundling telematics audits with policies and fostering loyalty

through data-backed discounts.

Embedded insurance matures into a $250 billion powerhouse, weaving coverage into e-commerce, travel apps, and SaaS platforms for frictionless uptake—projected at 35% annual growth. Blockchain secures these micro-transactions, while AR aids virtual claims inspections, cutting processing times in half.

Personalization peaks as algorithms fuse IoT streams with GenAI for bespoke offerings, ensuring equitable premiums and boosting retention by 20%. Cloud and low-code tools democratize adoption, empowering agents to co-create solutions.

Bottom Line: Embrace integrated platforms for advisory retainers, specialize in cyber-resilient bundles, and champion ethical AI to build trust. Innovation isn’t optional—it’s the lifeline for sustainable growth and client empowerment.

7. Market Conditions

Entering 2026, the US P/C insurance market is leaning toward stabilization, with premium growth moderating to 4% amid robust capital reserves exceeding $1 trillion and competitive pressures easing amid the seven-year hard cycle. Combined ratios are projected to edge up to 99, signaling slight underwriting strain from persistent cat losses—estimated at $120 billion for 2025—and social inflation, yet ROEs hold steady at 10% buoyed by 4.2% investment yields. Regional hotspots like Florida and California face sharper hikes, but national trends favor buyers in low-risk segments.

Commercial Lines Dynamics. Property softens further, with rates down 8-10% for preferred risks outside cat zones, thanks to ample capacity and reinsurance support.

Casualty firms modestly (3-12%), driven by litigation in umbrella/excess and venue risks in states like New York. Commercial auto remains pressured (+5-10%) by repair inflation and tariffs on parts, while workers’ comp stabilizes—flat to down—in most states. E&S lines expand for flexibility, though growth dips below 10%.

Personal Lines Challenges. Homeowners’ rates climb 8-15% in disaster-prone areas, driven by wildfire and hurricane

California Bill Seeks to Add ‘Transparency’ to Aerial Images Used by Insurers

A

California lawmaker is pushing to require insurers to notify homeowners in advance of taking or using aerial images of their property, and to stop insurers from basing decisions to cancel, non-renew, or reduce coverage based on aerial images older than 180 days.

Assembly Bill was introduced in early January by Assemblymember Lisa Calderon, D-Whittier, chair of the

Assembly Insurance Committee. Calderon said the aim of the bill is to protect homeowners by providing transparency when aerial images of their homes are taken or obtained by insurers.

“As the insurance crisis continues, it is imperative we do what we can to protect policyholders,” stated Calderon. “AB 1559 empowers homeowners by adding a layer of transparency when it comes to non-renewals.”

Aerial imagery, which includes images taken by drones, satellites, and airplanes, can help insurers conduct inspections and acquire detailed information not visible through a traditional home inspection, but the technology can also lead to erroneous insurance policy non-renewals based on inaccurate, outdated or misleading images, according to Calderon.

Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas is a co-author of AB 1559. It is also being sponsored by California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara. The bill requires insurers to notify homeowners in advance of taking or obtaining aerial images of their properties, and it requires insurers to provide those images to the homeowners upon request. AB 1559 would also prohibit carriers from basing decisions to cancel, non-renew or reduce coverage on aerial images older than 180 days.

Lastly, the bill provides rights to policyholders who were subject to insurance decisions based on aerial images, including the right for policyholders to receive the images along with the notice of non-renewal and the ability to request in-person verification of aerial images taken.

California Bill Would Require Insurer Claims Handling Plans, and Double Penalties

A

bill that promises legislative reform in California to speed up disaster recovery for homeowners and renters through improved insurance coverage and expanded consumer protections was introduced on the anniversary of the Los Angeles wildfires.

The Disaster Recovery Reform Act, Senate Bill 876, would also require a disaster recovery plan from insurers for handling claims effective in emergency situations and it would double penalties during declared emergencies for violations of insurance fair claims practices and settlement law.

SB 876 was introduced by California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara Senate Insurance Committee Chair Steve Padilla.

The proposed legislation is a response to wildfire disaster survivors’ calls for swifter claims payments.

W2 | INSURANCE JOURNAL | JANUARY 26, 2026

According to Lara, wildfire survivors have continued to report on-going problems accessing their insurance benefits, with delays, denials, and miscommunication from insurance companies at the top of the list of consumer complaints filed with the California Department of Insurance since the January 2025 L.A. wildfires.

Insurers have paid more than $22.4 billion on tens of thousands of claims from the L.A. wildfires, according to the latest data from the California Department of Insurance.

In another move aimed at relief for wildfire survivors, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said a group of major banks have agreed to extend mortgage relief for L.A. wildfire victims, as the area struggles to rebuild one year after the devastating blazes.

The CDI’s latest data shows 94% of

42,121 policyholder claims filed have been fully or partially paid, but Lara says more action is needed for successful recoveries and safer communities.

SB 876 would require a “disaster recovery plan” from insurers for handling claims and meeting timelines to be reviewed by the CDI in advance and put into effect in an emergency situation.

It would double penalties during a declared emergency for violations of insurance fair claims practices and settlement law, and require insurance companies pay restitution to policyholders when they violate the law.

The bill aims to address the reported delays in payments from the assigning of multiple adjusters to claims by requiring insurers to give status reports to policyholders within five days anytime a new adjuster is assigned.

• Make sure hiring managers get the training they need and stick to companywide best practices.

• Invest time and resources in the hiring process, even when things get busy, to ensure candidates remain engaged in your process.

Hiring best practices seem to be something every agency strives for; however, I find they don’t always get put into action.

Agencies that struggle with recruiting often fail to hold hiring managers accountable. Recruitment is simple: Time + Resources = Results. The more you invest, the better your outcomes. Often, time is the biggest hurdle, with hiring managers not always sticking to the process when other more pressing issues arise.

For your hiring process to go smoothly, get everyone involved—from HR to divisional leaders—to create a plan that defines the

3. Tailor Your Approach by Position

• Don’t use a one-size-fits-all method; customize your recruitment for each role.

• Create specific plans for different positions, especially for openings that require a highly specialized skill set or accelerated timeframe.

A blanket approach to recruiting just doesn’t work. Unique roles need different strategies. Instead of hoping a single process will find the perfect candidate, have a special plan for unique roles right from the start. This is especially true for agency client service roles, which are becoming increasingly more specialized based on the book of business, account size, location, and responsibilities required between consulting and marketing.

For roles like account executive, marketing, analytics, and management, it’s more important than ever to conduct passive candidate recruiting, nurture a candidate pipeline, and bring an external recruiter on board early. Insurance service candidates come on and off the market faster than any other type of job seeker, which makes timing, accessibility, and competitive compensation key components of recruiting success.

Closing Quote Gender Balance as a Business Strategy

T

By Laura Boettcher

he insurance industry is built on assessing risk, yet many companies overlook a critical one: the risk of sameness in leadership.

When all decision-makers look and think the same, they’re limited in their ability to spot emerging risks, connect with diverse customers, and navigate disruption. In a globally connected market, homogeneity can become a liability.

Avoiding this risk requires deliberate investment in diverse perspectives at the top.

Gender balance helps unlock strategic advantages that lead to sharper judgment, stronger teams, and better outcomes for customers, employees, and shareholders alike.

A Persistent Leadership Gap

Women make up 59% of the insurance industry workforce, according to the Insurance Information Institute, and that figure rises to roughly 70% for entry-level roles. Yet the representation gap widens as careers advance—only 22% of C-suite positions in the industry are held by women.

In an industry where women form the majority of the workforce, there is a unique opportunity to build clearer leadership pathways and develop internal talent. Promoting from within, expanding mentorship programs, and ensuring equitable

access to upskill opportunities are practical steps that can help women rise through the ranks while helping companies realize the full value of the talent within their walls.

The benefits extend far beyond representation.

Gender-balanced leadership drives measurable improvements in how organizations think, decide, and perform.

Balance Improves Outcomes

Trust and human connection are central to the insurance business. A leadership team that reflects a range of experiences and perspectives is better equipped to anticipate risk and earn that trust. When leadership is dominated by a single demographic, it can fall into the trap of groupthink, overlooking nuances in risk assessment, messaging, or strategy.

Gender-diverse leadership teams, by contrast, are more likely to question assumptions, catch blind spots, and make better decisions under pressure. A whitepaper from decision-intelligence platform Cloverpop found that, when compared to individual decision-makers, all-male teams made better decisions 58% of the time, while gender-diverse

teams made better decisions 73% of the time. Further supporting this, a study published in Science found that teams with more women had stronger collaboration through greater equality in conversation time and better use of the skills of each group member.

Where women are better represented, decision-making is enhanced and outcomes are improved. Companies where women represent more than 30% of executive leadership are significantly more likely to financially outperform those with less representation, according to a report from McKinsey & Company.

Higher Rates of Innovation

Innovation is critical to navigate shifting risks, digital disruption, and rising customer expectations. Gender-balanced leadership strengthens an organization’s ability to meet these challenges. Women leaders bring new perspectives, broadening how teams identify opportunities and approach new and complex problems.

Research shows that companies in innovation-focused industries with more women directors invest more in innovation and generate more

patents. More specifically, these companies saw R&D expenses increase by 10%, patents increase by 6%, and citations increase by 7%.

Future-Proofing

The insurance sector is navigating a convergence of pressures between climate change, digital transformation, an evolving workforce, and customer expectations.

Building resilience amid such complexity requires adaptable leadership. Inclusive leadership can help, but where do you begin?

• Promote from within.

Encourage internal candidates to pursue stretch roles that build confidence and visibility.

• Expand mentorship. Establish mentoring programs that help women strengthen new skills and prepare to step into leadership.

• Broaden opportunity. Use stretch assignments, special projects, and job rotations to help women gain exposure and demonstrate readiness.

• Make decision-making inclusive. Include a diverse range of individuals to ensure the quality of decision-making improves.

The Bottom Line

When a company’s leadership mirrors the diversity of the customers it serves, it sees risk more clearly, connects with customers more deeply, and makes decisions more confidently. For an industry that exists to protect what matters most, balance is essential.
