KUCHING, 13 August 2026 – Perinsuran (Brokar) Sdn Bhd, in partnership with AXA XL, successfully hosted The Boardroom Agenda 2026: Cyber and Financial Risk in Focus on 12-13 August 2026 at Hilton Kuching.

The two-day conference brought together industry leaders, corporate decision-makers, insurers, brokers and risk professionals to explore the growing convergence of cyber, financial and executive risks and their impact on modern organisations. 

The conference opened with remarks from Puan Rafidah of Perinsuran (Brokar) Sdn Bhd and Sylvie Gleises, Asia Regional CEO of AXA XL, setting the stage for discussions on cyber resilience, financial risk and board-level decision-making. 

Key insights were shared by industry specialists, including James Nicholson, AXA Asia Head of Financial Risks, Cyber and M&A, alongside speakers from the Cyber Resilience Seminar, who explored practical approaches to strengthening organisational preparedness. 

A key takeaway from the conference was that cyber risk is no longer solely an IT concern. Cyber incidents can trigger business interruption, financial losses, regulatory exposure, reputational damage and executive liability, making cyber resilience an increasingly important boardroom priority. 

Beyond the sessions, the event provided a valuable platform for participants to exchange perspectives, strengthen industry relationships and engage in meaningful discussions through networking activities, including the evening cocktail session. 

The conference reinforced the importance of taking a proactive approach to risk management-understanding interconnected exposures, strengthening governance and ensuring insurance programmes remain aligned with evolving business risks. 

Perinsuran (Brokar) Sdn Bhd and AXA XL extend their appreciation to all speakers, panelists, clients, partners and participants who contributed to two days of insightful discussions and meaningful connections. 

The Boardroom Agenda 2026 marks an important step in continuing the conversation on how organisations can better understand, manage and transfer emerging cyber and financial risks.
