In partnership with Asia House, DIFC launches the second report in its Future of Finance series at the Dubai World Insurance Congress 2025

At this year’s Dubai World Insurance Congress (DWIC), DIFC unveiled an exclusive report titled ‘Embedding Resilience: Opportunities for the Global Insurance Industry’ within its Future of Finance series in partnership with Asia House.
Informed by network-based research and candid discussions with business leaders, the report uncovers emerging opportunities and ways to build long-term resilience within the sector.
As the industry looks to plug the protection gap related to climate change and cyber risk, the transition to net zero and evolving Web3 and crypto asset risk landscape will require insurers to adapt and innovate. AI will enable insurers to enhance accuracy and efficiency in underwriting, streamline claims processing and distribution, and reduce regulatory costs. Another emerging trend is the growing collaboration between established insurers and InsurTechs as both seek to leverage complementary strengths.
The report provides a positive outlook for the Middle East insurance sector underpinned by large-scale investment in infrastructure, energy, and tourism mega-projects, all within a largely underpenetrated region.
Through this flagship report series, in partnership with Asia House, DIFC aims to bring actionable insights to financial services professionals and decision makers, empowering them to drive the future of finance, both regionally and globally.
