Aon expanded its Data Center Lifecycle Insurance Program to $5 billion in capacity, offering integrated risk and enginee

Aon plc announced an expansion of its Data Center Lifecycle Insurance Program, increasing program capacity to $5 billion while broadening integrated risk solutions that support digital infrastructure assets from development through long-term operations. The announcement was made on July 20, 2026.

According to Joe Peiser, CEO of Risk Capital for Aon, digital infrastructure has become one of the most important and capital-intensive asset classes in the global economy. As clients build larger and more complex data center portfolios, they need greater insurance capacity alongside solutions that strengthen resilience throughout the asset lifecycle. The $5 billion expansion demonstrates Aon's ability to help clients access capital, manage risk and scale with confidence.

The expanded program reflects Aon's Reliable by Design approach to digital infrastructure and extends the DCLP beyond traditional insurance placement. By bringing together insurance capacity, engineering expertise and risk intelligence earlier in the development process, Aon helps clients reduce transition risk, improve resilience and build digital infrastructure assets that are bankable, insurable at scale and resilient under stress.

The expansion comes as investment in artificial intelligence, cloud computing and hyperscale data centers accelerates, increasing demand for insurance solutions capable of supporting larger, more complex and more capital intensive projects through their lifecycle. The program builds on previous enhancements that increased DCLP capacity to $3.5 billion and expanded support for operational data centers.
