AI is reshaping risk management and surety bonding, creating new opportunities for smarter decision-making and proactive risk mitigation. In the latest episode of the NASBP podcast, Peter Miller, CPCU, President and CEO of The Institutes, discusses the evolving role of #AI in surety bonding, where trust and financial security are essential. He explores how AI is improving underwriting precision, detecting fraud more effectively, and providing deeper risk insights to help surety professionals make better-informed decisions. He also shares how AI-driven advancements, including Predict & Prevent strategies, are shifting surety bonding from a reactive process to a more data-driven, proactive approach that helps mitigate risks before they become losses. As AI continues to evolve, its role in risk assessment and surety bonding will only expand, helping professionals make faster, more informed decisions.

This Insurance Careers Month, Triple-I CEO Sean Kevelighan highlights the incredible opportunities and impact within the insurance industry. Insurance professionals play a vital role in communities every day, especially in times of crisis. As we witness the devastation caused by the wildfires in California, insurance serves as a financial first responder, helping to rebuild lives and economies. The insurance industry is also growing. From 2019 to 2024, we saw an 8.5% growth and surpassed 3 million people working in the field. It’s a large and expanding industry that continues to make an impact.
