In March 2025, we asked students their views on insurance companies, careers in these companies and its links with the fossil fuel industry. The survey was sent out to NUS' database and approximately 979 students responded.

Key findings include:

• 2 in 5 (42%) of respondents would be unlikely to consider a career in the insurance industry, regardless of their role in fossil fuel expansion.
• 70% did not know that insurance companies play a role in fossil fuel expansion.
• Three quarters (75%) of respondents agree that the insurance industry should concentrate on insuring projects that benefit the environment.

This research was conducted on behalf of the Insure Tomorrow campaign.
