Nuclear Verdicts®, Social Inflation, and Why They Matter to the Insurance World
Everyone sees the billboards. Law firms are marketing the large settlements and verdicts that they have secured. How are they getting those awards? Sometimes it's a settlement, but sometimes it's awarded by a court. When the court hands down a decision awarding $10 million or more, that's considered a nuclear verdict, according to some definitions. These Nuclear Verdicts® and the social inflation that they contribute to are the subjects of this session. Join us as Laura Gregory and Tim Fletcher help us to understand these concepts and help us to understand why we should care.

Getting Small Businesses to Understand and Buy Cyber

Join us as Kevin brings his signature style to this fast-paced hour all about helping people understand why they need cyber coverage.

The Business of Hacking 2022
Cybercrime is big business. Hackers aren't just trying to get into the government's networks or the big box retailers anymore.

Kidnap and Ransom Insurance in the Age of Cyber Extortion
It used to be that the exposure of kidnap and ransom was about providing coverage just in case the CEO, CFO, or their spouse were taken hostage by bad people. Today, the bad people are still taking hostages, but now it's more about taking your network hostage until you come up with 100 bitcoin.
Join us as Joe Harrington opens our eyes to the world of kidnap and ransom in an era of ransomware.
