Aon expands Data Center Lifecycle Insurance Program to $2.5 billion, strengthening resilience for AI-driving digital infrastructure

DUBLIN, Jan. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, today announced a $1 billion expansion of its proprietary Data Center Lifecycle Insurance Program (DCLP), increasing total capacity to $2.5 billion. The expansion responds to accelerating global investment in cloud computing, artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure and increasing complexity of risks across the data center lifecycle.  

First introduced in 2025, DCLP is a multi-line insurance solution designed to support data center projects from construction through ongoing operations. The program brings together traditionally fragmented risk classes into a single coordinated insurance solution. By integrating construction, cyber, cargo and operational risks, DCLP helps clients secure capacity at scale, reduce friction and execute projects more efficiently.

"Managing risk throughout the data center lifecycle is a strategic imperative – these platforms drive innovation, connectivity and economic growth," said Greg Case, president and CEO of Aon. "As these facilities become more critical and complex, building resilience into their infrastructure is essential for the broader business ecosystem. Aon is committed to helping clients anticipate risks, strengthen operational continuity and invest in the future of digital infrastructure with confidence."

The expanded DCLP is designed to support investors, developers and operators as data centers grow larger, more capital-intensive and more operationally complex. By integrating insurance capacity with risk engineering and analytics, the program helps clients anticipate risk, demonstrate resilience to stakeholders and support long term performance.

"When disruptions occur, the financial and operational consequences can be significant and ripple well beyond a single facility, affecting customers, supply chains and broader business operations," said Joe Peiser, CEO of Commercial Risk for Aon. "By expanding the capacity of DCLP, we are helping clients manage risk across the full lifecycle of a data center – from build-out to steady state operations, while supporting faster, more certain execution."

Key Features of the Data Center Lifecycle Insurance Program include:

• Up to $2.5 billion in coverage for Construction All Risks, Delay in Start-Up (DSU) and Operational Property Damage/Business Interruption.
• Cyber, Cyber Property Damage and Tech E&O coverage up to $400M, including DSU (damage and non-damage), business interruption and SLA violations.
• Third-party liability coverage up to $100 million (excluding U.S. exposures).
• Project cargo and transport insurance up to $500 million.
• Integrated risk engineering and cyber impact modelling available through Aon's Global Risk Consulting team.

This expansion of the DCLP builds upon Aon's broader strategy to scale innovative Risk Capital solutions for digital infrastructure. Late last year, Aon also announced the renewal of its Client Treaty — a proprietary follow-on facility designed to provide broad, multi-line coverage for complex risks — with enhanced terms that include protection for extended construction periods. This renewal reflects Aon's commitment to helping clients manage the unique challenges of large-scale technology projects, ensuring resilience from initial build through operational phases.

This recognition underscores Sino Land's ongoing commitment to managing key ESG challenges and opportunities in alignment with international standards.

The MSCI ESG Ratings evaluate over 17,000 global issuers based on their ability to manage long-term, financially material sustainability-related risks and opportunities relative to their industry peers. The rating considers factors that include carbon emissions, green buildings, health and safety, and supply chain management, which help investors identify companies better positioned for sustainable growth. In 2025, Sino Land received a 'AAA' rating, placing the company among the top 5% of performers within its industry ('Real Estate Development & Diversified Activities').

Mr Daryl Ng, Chairman of Sino Group and Chairman of the Group's ESG Steering Committee, said, 'We believe that resilience and well-being are fundamental to a meaningful sustainability vision—one that aims to create lasting value for our stakeholders while making a positive impact on the environment. We are grateful for the recognition of our approach, reflected in a top position within this international ratings system, which motivates us to further integrate ESG considerations into our long-term strategy. Moving forward, we will continue to collaborate with partners to enhance our efforts and drive innovation in sustainable practices. Our strategic priorities will align with investor expectations through a commitment to responsible stewardship, thoughtful design, and social responsibility—ultimately strengthening both our portfolio and the communities we serve.'

Sino Group has focused on enhancing its climate change adaptation and resilience efforts and has launched the 'Supplier Climate Alliance' to promote a sustainable supply chain. In recognition of these efforts, the Group, including Sino Land, has received several accolades, such as validation from the Science Based Targets initiative ('SBTi') for its long-term emissions reduction targets, and top ranking in the Greater China Real Estate Business Sustainability Index ('REBSI'). Sino Land has been included in the CDP's highest benchmark—the 2025 Climate Change A List and recognised as a 'Global Sector Leader' in the Development Benchmark – Residential category, in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark ('GRESB') Real Estate Assessment, both for the second consecutive year. As of 30 June 2025, Sino Land has achieved BEAM Plus certification for 90% of its new buildings in Hong Kong.
