                             CEOs of the insurance industry

                             are concerned about technological

                             transformation speed




                             PwC has announced the results of its traditional Annual Global CEO

                             Survey carried out for the 24th time this year. The Survey was carried
                             out in January and February of 2021 rather than at the end of the
                             previous year, considering the Covid-19 vaccine development process,
                             the USA presidential election, and Brexit bargains between England
                             and EU, and it was completed with the participation of 5,050 CEOs

                             from  55  countries  and  regions.  The  most  remarkable  result  of  the
                             survey is that 76 percent of the global CEOs are expecting economic
                             growth in 2021 after a challenging global pandemic year. While the

                             developments about pandemics are at the top of the CEOs’ definition
                             of risk, cyber threats including subtopics such as cyber-attacks and
                             disinformation are considered among the important issues of the
                             business world. According to the survey, CEOs do not agree on climate
                             change; while 30 percent of the participant managers report a serious

                             concern about climate change, 60 percent do not consider climate
                             change among strategical risks in terms of management.
