The 2021 conference will be held virtually June 7-10, 2021. Keenan’s session, titled “ESG for Microinsurance,” is scheduled for 7-7:45 a.m. EDT on June 8.
Keenan, executive director and chief strategy officer of AM Best Rating Services, will join Microinsurance Network Executive Director Katharine Pulvermacher for a panel discussion on how changes in ESG reporting could impact the insurance industry and spur greater focus on inclusive insurance.
