The fourth edition of Munich Re’s “Global Cyber Risk and Insurance Survey” shows that cyber resilience is widely recognized by decision-makers as a strategic corporate priority. The results and findings underline the strong potential for cyber insurance moving forward.

Munich Re’s “Global Cyber Risk and Insurance Survey 2026” incorporates insights from over 9,500 respondents across 20 countries, covering all industries and company sizes. The participants were asked on their situation with regards to technological dependencies, threat patterns, cyber risk awareness, and the role of cyber insurance.

A brief overview of some of the key findings

Market trends

According to Munich Re estimates, the global cyber insurance market totaled nearly USD 15bn in 2025. Following an exceptionally steep rise, growth in cyber premiums has slowed over the past three years.  Munich Re experts anticipate the global premium volume to expand to around USD 28bn by 2030, representing an average annual global growth rate of 15% between 2020 and 2030.
