The latest from CyberCube and UIB for you;
Asia is emerging as one of the most important growth regions for cyber insurance globally, according to joint research published by cyber risk analytics leader CyberCube and United Insurance Brokers (UIB), the international insurance and reinsurance Lloyd’s broker.
The report, “Unlocking Asia’s Cyber Insurance Opportunity: The Broker’s Role in Growth”, notes digital adoption is accelerating across the region, yet standalone cyber insurance penetration remains structurally low. In many markets, fewer than five percent of small businesses currently purchase dedicated cyber cover. This contrast highlights how cyber insurance demand in Asia is still developing, even as digital exposure continues to increase.
The central thesis of this joint research states that in a softening cyber market defined by abundant capacity and pressure on rates, sustainable growth will not come simply from a favourable pricing cycle. It will emerge from developing markets such as Asia, driven, in part, by brokers who recognize opportunities in the Far East.
“As cyber risk becomes increasingly central to business resilience, brokers are playing a critical role in helping organisations understand and structure appropriate financial protection,” said Dimaggio Rigby, Head of Cyber and Fin Pro Lines, UIB. “We have seen strong demand from Asia in the past year, with the region poised to emerge in 2026 as one of the fastest-growing markets outside the US. This has partly been fuelled by growing awareness of an increase in cybersecurity risks driven by a rise in ransomware demands across the region.”
CyberCube’s Broking Manager, which is powered by a growing database of real cyber policies and claims experience globally, reveals that intermediaries are actively monitoring opportunities in the APAC region. CyberCube’s analytics platform enables intermediaries to communicate cyber risk to clients effectively and illustrates the financial exposure and benchmarking details needed to substantiate cyber insurance recommendations.
Nate Brink, Head of Broker Partnerships, CyberCube, said: “CyberCube’s analysis of Broking Manager APAC company searches reveals a consistent year-over-year increase in 2024 and 2025. This trend points to growing demand for cyber insurance across both the large corporate and Small-to-Medium Business (SMB) sectors. The expansion within the SMB segment suggests a favorable movement toward more widely available and standardized regional policy options.”
