Better Decisions for Sustainable Growth 17 – 18 March 2026

Event Details

In today’s volatile business environment, leaders needed clarity and confidence to make better decisions. Organizations increasingly adopted integrated Trade Credit, Surety, and Structured Credit/Political Risk solutions, not in isolation, but as a combined approach to improve working capital, capital efficiency, and growth.

Aon’s Global Credit Solutions Conference 2026 took place virtually on March 17–18, 2026, bringing together more than 1,000 attendees with global subject matter experts, industry thought leaders, and senior decision-makers. The event explored the credit solutions issues shaping the business world and provided valuable insights to help organizations make better decisions for sustainable growth.

The agenda featured keynotes and interactive discussions covering topics such as Risk Financing, Data and Analytics, Political Risk, and Surety. Attendees also heard from senior insurance leaders during the popular Credit Solutions Market Outlook session, where they examined the challenges and opportunities facing businesses in 2026.

BBC Economics Correspondent, Financial Presenter, and Broadcaster Andy Verity served as Master of Ceremonies for the event.
