Reducing the cost of insuring firefighting aircraft

As the global climate shifts, wildfires are becoming more frequent and intense. The economic and environmental consequences can be devastating, and the need for effective firefighting aircraft has never been greater. Purpose-built firefighting aircraft and their pilots stand at the forefront of this battle, providing essential service in saving property, forestry, and lives, but traditional insurance models have made insuring these aircraft prohibitively expensive. It is essential that insurers, brokers, and insurance buyers work together to improve the insurance conditions for these operations as the need to fight wildfires is set to rise further.

Space insurance: the promise of in-orbit repair

The market for insuring satellites in orbit has seen many developments, but space itself continues to be a challenging environment. The satellites we launch to space must survive years of intense solar radiation, damaging vacuum conditions and temperatures ranging from minus 150C to plus 200C. This means that sometimes – despite careful design, highly-regulated manufacturing, and stringent testing - parts can fail.The market for insuring satellites in orbit has seen many developments, but space itself continues to be a challenging environment.
