Civil Unrest Risk on the Rise

Protests and civil unrest are increasingly impacting businesses around the world, according to a report from Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty (AGCS). Since 2017, there have been more than 400 significant anti-government protests worldwide, with almost a quarter lasting more than three months. The costs can be substantial—between 2018 and 2023, six major civil unrest incidents resulted in more than $12 billion in economic and insured losses.
