ESG Spotlight: The ESG opportunity for SME brokers

It would be a mistake for any SME broker to push environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues down the agenda.

This is because insurers are waking up to the huge opportunity ESG offers in the SME space – and they need brokers on board.

In an Insurance Post survey this year of insurance professionals at major insurers, backed by solutions provider CRIF, around two-thirds of respondents said the current ESG initiatives and regulatory framework had led them to create new green insurance products.

This spotlight highlights the emergence of green products and initiatives, and how forward-thinking brokers can seize new opportunities within the SME space.

Topics covered:
• Risk management and profitability.
• Green products and services.
• Training and education.
