Willis urges mining sector to take advantage of favourable market conditions to improve resilience

LONDON, Oct. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global insurance market for the mining sector remains highly favourable for buyers, with abundant capacity, sustained competition among insurers and continued downward pressure on rates, according to the latest Mining Risk Review 2026 from Willis, a WTW business (NASDAQ: WTW). Demand for critical minerals is accelerating, which has led to robust prices across a range of commodities, prompting miners to invest in new projects, partnerships and technologies. At the same time, they are facing a rapidly evolving risk environment that demands a renewed focus on resilience and long-term risk management.
