Description: Most of our standard risk management processes are designed to work well within a shifting environment that stays fundamentally the same over time. We are likely to experience something drastically different starting soon - a major regime change. This webinar addresses how we might react to such turbulent times both to survive current issues and prepare to thrive in a new future. Participants will learn how scenario planning can be used to help envision a way forward. A case study will look at the ways that this regime change might affect our cities, how that could affect insurers and how both cities and insurers can approach the transition period as well as plotting a course for the future regime.

Description: Model Risk Management at insurers has been an established practice for well over ten years now. Until recently, a primary focus of model governance was on actuarial models. The Gen AI evolution we’ve experienced in the last two years, has shone a spotlight on “all things AI”. Along with the increased capabilities AI brings, there is increased concern for the proper use of these models, protection of IP, safeguarding of PII, and overall security. This session will bring together a diverse panel to discuss how we can adapt our established practices for these new models to minimize the risks that come with Gen AI and help our organizations optimize the benefits of AI.
