Artificial intelligence is no longer a future-state concept in insurance - it's processing claims, flagging fraud, and informing coverage decisions today. But as AI accelerates operations, it quietly redistributes risk in ways most organizations haven't fully mapped.

This panel brings together risk leaders to examine the strategic questions that matter most: When an AI-driven claims decision is wrong, who is accountable - the insurer, the vendor, or the model itself? How do you govern a system you can't fully explain? And what does "due diligence" look like when your adjuster is an algorithm?

Attendees will leave with a practical framework for assessing AI-related operational risk, a clearer picture of where regulatory expectations are heading in Canada, and concrete questions to bring back to their own organizations.

The rapid rise in commercial and personal use of lithium-ion batteries can be seen in their proliferation throughout consumer electronics, electric vehicles, energy storage systems and industrial power. Investigate the unique risk management challenges this creates for your organization. Learn about the various risks posed from fire, safety, environmental and insurance perspectives. Examine the extent to which these risks can be insured. See what you can do to facilitate a successful transition to a more electrified economy for manufacturers, municipalities and building owners.

Learning Objectives:

• Elaborate on the implications of the broad use of lithium-ion batteries in today’s economy.
• Enumerate the fire, safety and environmental risks from lithium-ion batteries.
• Consider appropriate loss prevention, risk controls and risk transfer methods to manage lithium-ion battery risks.
