Key takeaways

D&O prices continue to rise, but the pace of increases has slowed in recent quarters.

 New capacity is entering the marketplace, competition is returning, and insurers are looking to grow.

The claims environment for public companies is growing more complex.

COVID-19 has not resulted in a substantial wave of claims, but event-driven litigation continues to grow in frequency. Meanwhile, environmental, social, and governance topics remain front and center and regulatory scrutiny is growing in a number of ways.

Managing global programs and maintaining relationships with underwriters will be key in 2022.

Boards and risk professionals will need to provide more detailed information to insurers on a number of topics. And they’ll need to look carefully at D&O policy wording, limits, and retentions in each of the countries where they do business.
