The Current Landscape -
With rising concerns about global warming and a push toward ethical underwriting, mining companies operating in today’s landscape are facing a unique set of insurance challenges. Aon’s 2019 Global Risk Management Survey identified the following top 10 risk concerns for miners:

With all these risks being considered, companies in the mining sector require both insurance and risk management programs that are exceptionally effective, to reduce the cost of risk, and to help satisfy a breadth of regulatory requirements.

Aon’s Mining Team supports mining organizations through challenging circumstances, helping them to optimize their risk-taking and risk management activities. With significant project development, exploration and operational site expertise, Aon combines this with a desire to understand the complexities of our clients’ activities, to create optimal solutions.

What Does Your Organization Need?
To appropriately manage the risks in this sector, organizations must create insurance programs that are closely aligned to their company’s risk tolerance. This should be a continually evolving process as projects progress through the exploration, design and operational phases.

When working with Aon, mining companies can be assured that all risks will be identified, as our mining specialists partner closely with clients to address all risk issues at their sites.

We can help your organisation with:
  • Defined contribution consulting services that analyse your company’s objectives and employee population to help you meet your retirement planning goals
