About This Event
PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are found in an enormous range of products, from food packaging and cosmetics to medical devices and clothes. But these “forever chemicals” linger in the body and have been correlated with various health conditions—potentially putting insurers at risk for PFAS claims and litigation.
PFAS litigation continues to evolve, so it is important to stay current on relevant issues. Furthermore, insurers have already been called upon to defend and indemnify certain PFAS claims, emphasizing the need for actuaries to understand this exposure today. Quantifying potential PFAS liabilities is challenging, but actuaries are well positioned to develop modeling approaches for this growing risk.
Join to hear the latest on PFAS litigation, regulatory response, impact on insurance, and how actuaries can effectively quantify the risk in the face of uncertainty.
