Gallagher highlights impact of civil unrest

Gallagher has found that more than a quarter of UK businesses were impacted by civil unrest in 2024. The intermediary spoke to more than 500 decision makers at businesses of different sizes and nearly two-thirds said the continuation of the issue was a major concern for the year ahead.

Jonathan Rae, director of crisis management at Gallagher, said: “It is clear that all kinds of civil unrest in the UK is a problem and is weighing heavily on the minds of business leaders.

“With many of the underlying conditions cited by business leaders still present in the UK, from inflationary pressures to societal division, it is no surprise UK businesses are concerned about another year of anti-social behaviour, and many making plans to protect themselves against its impact.”
