Insurance & Risk Financing for Corporates
Buy the risk transfer worth buying — retain the rest knowingly.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Risk appetite for insurance is written in adjectives, so every exception is defensible and every decision is unpriced. Reputations built over decades are spent in the first week of an unmanaged insurance event. This is where insurance stops being a compliance artefact and becomes an executive discipline your board will recognise as one.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Design a insurance risk architecture that anticipates rather than documents.
- Quantify insurance exposure in money — loss scenarios, tolerances and stress tests.
- Rehearse the insurance response before it is needed — command, disclosure and coordination.
- Lead insurance incident command when the organisation is under pressure.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
Friday, 21:40
A a national health insurer is hit by a ransomware event with insurance systems only partially segmented. The attackers threaten to release customer data; the board wants service restored, the regulator wants answers, and the media already has a source.
Your decision: In the first two hours: payment posture, restoration sequence, disclosure — and who commands the insurance response.
IPAT Data Lab™
A a mining group knows it loses money to operational events but cannot see where.
Dataset: Synthetic incident and operational loss dataset for a mining group, including near misses and unrecorded events.
Your task: Quantify the exposure, find the concentration, and design a mitigation portfolio with a defensible business case.
A insurance exposure dashboard and mitigation investment case.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
