Willis argues data center owners should shift from buying maximum available insurance capacity ($15 billion market) to quantifying actual risk exposures, improving capital efficiency and resilience through design-phase climate adaptation and evidence-based coverage alignment.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cloud Infrastructure and Cybersecurity, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You're oversuring your data center because you're buying the market average, not your actual risk. Willis just published the math to cut that bill by 30-40% and prove it to your lender—climate proofing early in build beats insurance overspend every time.
