Concurrent Session 6.2:
Underwriting Special Risks Today: Is there a revolutionary approach or is it business as usual?

Join our panelists for a current discussion on underwriting Foreign Nationals, Foreign Travel, Professional Athletes, Entertainers, and Influencers. What is new and still the same, overviewing guidelines, benchmarking, and general statistical data will be shared. Global travel has returned, professional sports is a growing business, and "The Influencers are Coming!” – social media marketers, YouTubers, pay-for-content creators, and NIL athletes to name a few. How do we best approach these new-age wage earners and unique risks? This session will provide all the ‘tea’ you need to underwrite that next case with ease.
