# Cyber renewals in 2026: what to flag for clients

Cyber renewal forms have shifted again this quarter. Three patterns are worth flagging on every comparison so the client doesn’t get surprised.

## 1\. Special amendatory clauses are doing real work

More carriers are bundling coverage upgrades and restrictions into amendatory clauses rather than rewriting the form. CFC, Beazley, and Coalition all shipped clauses this year that added new sublimits at no extra premium while tightening retroactive dates. Worth surfacing as a HIGH flag when the clause adds value, MEDIUM when it shifts terms.

## 2\. TRIA terms are inconsistent

Some carriers offer TRIA as a $10-$25 optional add-on, some bundle it, some explicitly exclude it. A renewal comparison should call this out by name, not bury it in the endorsements list. Clients ask about terror coverage now unprompted.

## 3\. Cyber crime sublimits are shrinking, quietly

Look for Funds Transfer Fraud sublimits being cut from $1M to $250K-$500K in the renewal quote. Often listed only in a schedule of changes, not in the headline limit number. This is a MEDIUM flag almost always, because the rest of the policy looks identical.

## What to do at bind

For each of these patterns, surface the change in your report’s flags section with a one-line client-facing summary and a citation to the page in the carrier PDF where it appears. The conversation moves from “did you see this?” to “here is what changed, and what to do about it.”
