Navigating geopolitical risk: Strategic resilience for financial institutions in an unstable world | General Insurance Spring Webinar Series 2026

Mon 27 Apr 2026 -
09:30 - 10:30 (BST)

In an era marked by escalating geopolitical tensions, financial institutions face unprecedented challenges. From trade wars and regional conflicts to cyber threats and regulatory fragmentation, the landscape of geopolitical risk is reshaping the way banks and insurers operate, invest, and manage risk.

This session discusses the evolving nature of geopolitical risk and its implications for financial stability, capital adequacy, underwriting, and operational resilience. Drawing on recent case studies and global risk intelligence, we will explore how institutions can integrate geopolitical scenarios into their risk frameworks, including internal capital adequacy assessment, and enhance their strategic agility.

Key themes include:

  • Impact of global conflicts and trade disruptions on operational, credit, and market risk
  • Cybersecurity as a geopolitical threat: implications for operational risk
  • Operational resilience and the risk flux framework
  • Insurance underwriting and reinsurance pricing in high-risk regions
  • Scenario planning and stress testing for geopolitical shocks for the insurer
