Insurance Law's Next Decade: Climate, AI and Cross-Border Risk?

Four insurance lawyers and a broker from Cyprus, Romania, Norway and the UK set out how climate risk, AI and globalisation will reshape insurance law over the next decade. The through-line: EU rules (Solvency II, GDPR, the incoming AI Act) are pushing climate and AI exposures into underwriting, governance and product design, leaving real gaps in cover that markets have not yet filled, while professional and energy-sector liability looms as the biggest claims threat across every jurisdiction.
