Marsh Risk Enhances Nimbus Facility to Support Major Data Center Initiatives

Insurance broker Marsh Risk, a division of Marsh, has recently announced a significant enhancement to Nimbus, its specialized insurance facility for large-scale data center construction projects. This expansion marks a pivotal moment in the insurance landscape, particularly for businesses involved in digital infrastructure development.

Nimbus now boasts coverage limits of up to US$2.7 billion. This comprehensive coverage includes provisions for delay in start-up and business interruption, making it an invaluable resource for major data center construction projects across various regions, including the UK, US, Canada, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

Launched in June 2025, Nimbus is recognized as the first insurance facility of its kind tailored specifically for large-scale data center construction. It aims to support the transformative potential of digital infrastructure while addressing specific risk exposures. This initiative provides enhanced financial protection for both Marsh Risk’s clients and their capital providers.

Currently, Nimbus is actively being utilized in various projects across the US, UK, and the Netherlands. This deployment underscores the growing demand for robust insurance solutions in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

In addition to the extensive capacity offered through Nimbus’ panel of A-rated insurers from Lloyd’s and other leading markets, Marsh’s Global Digital Infrastructure team brings a wealth of industry expertise. This expertise spans critical areas such as construction, cybersecurity, energy, and power. By leveraging this knowledge, Marsh empowers clients throughout the digital infrastructure ecosystem to safeguard their capital, manage essential assets, and pursue growth with enhanced confidence and efficiency.

“The demand for more powerful and efficient data centers is accelerating technological innovation, particularly in areas like AI and machine learning,” stated Mike Mathews, global digital infrastructure leader at Marsh. “These advancements are set to revolutionize our daily lives and reshape economic landscapes over the next decade.”

Mathews further emphasized Marsh’s commitment to assisting clients in this sector, stating, “We are working with communities to develop business strategies that will enable sustainable growth.”

“By harnessing our global resources in critical interconnected areas such as capital management, construction, off-site power generation, environmental risk, and operational resilience, Marsh is empowering data center developers, operators, and owners to enhance their delivery and resilience as we embrace the age of Industry 4.0.”
