Aon highlights emerging AI risk and insurance issues for consulting firms

Professional ServicesFinancial Services

Aon’s Professional Services practice outlines how AI is reshaping consulting delivery models and creating new exposures, including data misuse, model hallucinations, and unclear accountability for AI-assisted advice. The note stresses the importance of aligning AI strategy with risk, legal, and HR, and embedding governance into day-to-day client delivery.

Why it matters for leaders
For a professional services advisor, this codifies AI risk as an explicit balance-sheet and reputation issue, not only a technology concern. It strengthens the case to package AI governance, controls, and training into every AI MVP and transformation engagement, and to position yourself as the bridge between innovation and insurability.

Create an ‘AI risk and readiness’ assessment that can be sold as a front-end to AI strategy or MVP work, mapping current and planned AI use to governance gaps, control requirements, and insurability questions for professional services firms and their clients.

Risk signal

Advising on AI without clearly documented governance, human oversight, and incident response may leave your firm exposed if AI-enabled recommendations lead to client losses, particularly as insurers become more sophisticated in scrutinizing AI use.
