AM Best to Host Briefing on State of US Directors and Officers Insurance Market

OLDWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A panel of AM Best analysts and industry leaders will discuss the latest trends shaping the U.S. directors and officers (D&O) insurance market in a briefing scheduled for Thursday, June 26, 2025, at 11 a.m. EDT.

The Best’s Briefing will explore emerging liability exposures, evolving regulatory pressures, litigation trends and the implications of governance and disclosures on the market. Panelists also will provide insights on underwriting strategies, reserve development, risk mitigation and the future of D&O coverage in an increasingly complex business environment.

The panel includes Peter Carozza, RPLU, regional head of private company management liability, North America Financial Lines, Allianz; Kevin M. LaCroix, executive vice president, RT ProExec; and David Blades, associate director, Industry Research and Analytics, AM Best.

AM Best currently holds a negative outlook on the D&O segment due to a number of factors, including rising legal expenses and growing exposures from new technologies, as well as a potentially unsustainable pricing environment.
