Airmic delegates can collect coins to vote on key risk issues
The Airmic conference organisers have devised an innovative way to garner opinions from attendees at the annual event in Harrogate this week: installing a coin voting booth that delegates will be encouraged to use during the event to inform the organisers of their sentiments on some key issues.
The quirky survey represents a follow-up to the results of the Airmic survey, the results of which are being released at the conference. The results of the follow-up will be shared and analysed by an expert panel at a seminar titled ‘Powerful trends are re-shaping the risk and insurance landscape’ at 9:30am on Wednesday.
Delegates will be asked to share their opinions on five questions on geopolitics, data, intangibles, governance, and threat monitoring. They can do this by collecting five coins from one of the survey partners’ stands: Willis Towers Watson, QBE, KPMG, AIG and Control Risks. Delegates can then use these coins to submit a vote at the coin voting booth next to the Airmic Learning Hub.
Richard Cutcher, research and development manager at Airmic, said: “The Airmic survey provides a snapshot of our profession, but our conversation with members and the market does not stop there.
“Asking five follow-up questions to the entire conference delegation provides an opportunity to explore the themes of governance, emerging risks, threat monitoring, data, and geopolitics further, and debate the results during our Wednesday morning seminar.”
The questions cover: what will the greatest risk to directors and officers be in three years’ time; how well businesses understand and quantify the impact of geopolitical risk on their risk profile and financial performance; how threat monitoring techniques are most suitably deployed; how business can maximise the potential of data and analytics; and who should be primarily responsible for designing customised insurance solutions.
Each question has three potential answers. To see those answers and to cast your vote, head to the Airmic Learning Hub.
