This IDC FutureScape presents IDC Financial Insights’ view of worldwide insurance 2026 predictions as they apply to the Asia/Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ) region. Each IDC Financial Insights prediction supports a five-year planning process by identifying the timing as well as cost and complexity to address. IDC contextualizes these global predictions for APEJ to reflect a regional perspective and show how banks in the region are seeking to enhance their competitive positioning by deploying advanced tools, technologies, and capabilities to strengthen their delivery structure and explore new business models to sustain growth and increase revenue.

Each prediction has guidance points for tech sales and marketing leaders, categorized under customer targets, lead challenges, and top priorities. This accompanying document to the IDC FutureScape also includes steps for positioning for success for sales and marketing tech leaders.

Climate change is intensifying the frequency and severity of natural disasters, compelling insurers to upgrade their risk models and embrace advanced technologies. In 2024, major weather events resulted in $182.7 billion in losses, highlighting the urgent need for more accurate climate risk assessment and pricing. Insurers are increasingly turning to AI and satellite data to enhance their ability to predict, price, and manage climate-related risks, thereby improving resilience.

In the APEJ region, adoption is steady but measured, with 30% of insurers expected to launch AI- and satellite-powered climate risk covers by 2029. This gradual approach reflects the region’s efforts to balance innovation with regulatory requirements and the growing responsibility to address climate impacts, in contrast to the faster pace of global adoption.

IDC FutureScape: Worldwide Security and Trust 2026 Predictions — Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Implications: Positioning for Success — Opportunities for Tech sales and Marketing Leaders

Sakshi Grover, Yih Khai Wong — Wed, 24 Dec 2025 05:00:00 GMT

This IDC FutureScape Market Presentation provides the IDC Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) (APEJ) perspective on how globally relevant security and trust predictions will shape local market trajectories through 2026 and beyond, offering guidance for technology marketers and sales leaders as they position their portfolios for an AI-driven and sovereignty-conscious world.

The Asia/Pacific region is entering a phase defined by rapid adoption of agentic AI, rising expectations for sovereign AI controls, and escalating threats, such as synthetic identities and AI-augmented attacks. Regulatory scrutiny is expanding, data residency rules are tightening, and governments are preparing for the risks of the quantum era. As a result, organizations across APEJ are expected to increase investments in AI-native security platforms, automated governance and compliance tools, and trust-validation capabilities that can operate at scale across distributed environments. These external pressures are prompting enterprises to prioritize resilient, ethical, and verifiable approaches to technology deployment, ensuring that security becomes the foundation for innovation while enabling them to adapt to shifting regulatory, operational, and competitive dynamics.
