Following the pandemic, there is a growing global focus on “People Risk,” which is the risk associated with employees.
Globally, people risk is recognized by management as having an impact on business continuity and stability, corporate reputation, and revenue growth. In Japan, it is expected to receive more attention as awareness of “human capital management” grows.
Mercer Marsh Benefits has conducted “People Risk Awareness Surveys” for HR and Risk Management professionals globally since 2021, and this year we conducted a similar survey in Japan for the first time.
In this session, we will present the key findings of the survey in Japan and compare them to the results in Europe, the U.S., and Asia.

The global economy is increasingly driven by innovation and intangible assets. Over the past 25 years, intangibles have grown exponentially by around 11% per annum to $74 trillion in 2021 and it’s expected the value will reach $1 quadrillion by 2050.1 With this, intangible assets are progressively becoming the dominant share of enterprise’ value today and as such, it’s essential companies identify and understand the exposures this brings, explore ways to protect themselves against those exposures and furthermore, realize the full potential value of their intellectual property to utilize it for growth.

An economics and finance student by training, Kelvin entered the world of risk management and insurance more than 10 years ago. He has since been active on both the buy and sell side of the corporate insurance world, experiencing firsthand the relevance and yet under-appreciation of good corporate risk management. Kelvin started out as a risk consultant with a global insurance brokerage company, and advised private and public sector clients across a range of industries, with strong expertise in enterprise risk management, business continuity management, captives and risk-insurance gap analysis.
Kelvin is currently the corporate risk manager of International SOS, where he manages the global insurance portfolio which includes property, casualty and employee benefits and encompasses the company’s global operations in 94 countries. Kelvin also set up the first ever employee benefits captive program in Asia for Intl.SOS, and leads various risk management initiatives within the company.
In his desire to elevate the expertise and profile of risk managers, Kelvin became a founding board member at the Pan-Asia Risk Management & Insurance Association (PARIMA), a non-profit professional association dedicated to driving the development of this industry. He now serves as Treasurer and EXCO member. A frequent speaker and panelist at conferences, Kelvin leverages on his global network of risk manager peers and risk & insurance industry leaders to share best practices.
