OLDWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AM Best’s Matthew C. Mosher will join the Global Insurance Forum’s Expert Series for an on-demand discussion beginning Dec. 13, 2021, about how the pandemic, economic issues and the appearance of new risks are changing the insurance regulatory environment.

During the event, Mosher, president and chief executive officer of AM Best Rating Services, and Paul Carroll, editor-in-chief of Insurance Thought Leadership, have a conversation on regulatory-related topics, including:

  • Why insurance companies’ ability to innovate is now part of AM Best’s analytical assessments.
  • How reputation risk, and in particular, talent risk, have emerged as major insurance industry concerns.
