When the World Fragments: Global conflict, trade routes & the stress test on aviation and marine systems

For Asia, a region deeply dependent on cross-border trade and logistics connectivity, the pressure is particularly acute. Aviation and marine operators are simultaneously facing rising operational costs, capacity constraints, and heightened exposure to war, sanctions, and political instability. At the same time, insurers and reinsurers are recalibrating risk appetite, pricing models, and coverage structures in response to growing volatility and accumulation risk.
