Structured Credit & Political Risks Insurance Market Update
The world currently faces a wide range of significant challenges, both political and economic. Global growth estimates continue to be revised lower and lower by economists. Fitch Solutions’ January 2022 forecast of 4.1% growth was adjusted to 3% in June 2022, with further downward revisions possible.

This update covers:
- An overview of the insurance market
- Emerging market report, in partnership with Fitch Solutions
- Highlights of insurance market moves in the last six months
