PFAS risks and insurability challenges

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) — often referred to as “forever chemicals” due to their resistance to degradation — have come under increased scrutiny due to concerns about their environmental and human health impacts. This underscores the importance of robust risk management strategies and securing appropriate insurance coverage to address the evolving regulatory environment. In this episode of Risk in Context, Marsh’s Kimberly Mann, Nicolas Dzubanowski, Matthew Kerr, and Chuck Moran discuss some of the main PFAS-related risks that organizations across industries and geographies are facing. They also talk about some of the insurability challenges and share actions that organizations should consider taking to address this evolving risk. You can access a transcript of the episode here.
