Casualty Risk Trends: Construction industry

Digital technologies are increasingly influencing the construction industry and thereby reshaping the insurers’ risk landscape. Novel building materials and mega projects are also influencing construction industry practices. It remains to be seen how an industry normally slow in adopting such technological changes will embrace these new challenges.

One way or the other insurers must prepare to cope with the new trends and developments. The Swiss Re Casualty Risk Trends report shows what can be done to minimise the risks and gives an overview over the main questions related to the construction industry.
