The second podcast series on Incoming Multinationals in India: Decoded – DPDP & Cyber Insurance: Impact, Readiness & The Way Forward

In this episode, we bring together Marsh’s top experts and global leadership to unpack how the DPDP Act is reshaping cyber insurance policies and liability frameworks.

As India’s data economy accelerates, the introduction of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act marks a pivotal moment in the country’s regulatory and cyber risk landscape. With multinational organizations scaling operations in India, risk managers are now facing crucial questions about data privacy compliance, claims preparedness, and cyber insurance adaptability.

In this episode, we bring together Marsh’s top experts and global leadership to unpack how the DPDP Act is reshaping cyber insurance policies and liability frameworks.

Key Takeaways:

  • The DPDP Act will transform how businesses assess, underwrite, and transfer cyber risk in India.
  • Multinational clients need to revisit policy language to ensure regulatory fines, data subject claims, and breach response costs are covered.
  • Cyber insurers and risk managers must collaborate more closely to ensure readiness for future litigation and regulatory scrutiny.
  • Claims scenarios involving global data flows will require clarity on jurisdiction, response timelines, and admissibility of coverage.
  • Marsh’s global cyber team and claims advocacy specialists are helping clients stay ahead with tailored solutions and benchmarking.
  • Future trends point to stricter enforcement, sector-specific obligations, and a stronger role for captives in cyber risk financing.

This is a must-listen for CIOs, CISOs, Legal Counsels, and Risk Leaders preparing for a data-driven future in India.
