2026 Middle Market Profitability & Resiliency Report

October 20, 2026

Leaders understand the risks facing their organizations — cyber threats, operational costs, AI, macroeconomic volatility, regulatory and geopolitical uncertainty — but no single threat stands alone. Deciding what needs attention first is the real challenge.

The HUB International 2026 Middle Market Profitability & Resiliency Report examines how senior business leaders across North America are navigating this risk environment and what the highest-performing organizations are doing to stay ahead.

Organized around a proprietary Risk Management Maturity Model, the report gives leaders a practical framework for evaluating where they stand and where to focus next.

Key findings include:
  • Why no single risk stands out and why that makes prioritization the defining leadership challenge right now.
  • How risk fatigue is freezing progress, even among organizations that recognize the risks they face.
  • Where the gap between having protection and understanding it is limiting confident decision making.

Download the report to understand where your organization stands and what's needed to move forward with confidence.
