NEW YORK – September 30, 2026 -- Eighty-six percent of advertisers say slow audience fulfillment could cause them to cut spending or abandon a retail media network partner, according to GrowthLoop's 2026 Commerce Media Investment Index. The study, conducted with Ascend2, surveyed nearly 300 U.S. and Canadian marketing professionals involved in retail media network (RMN) or commerce media network (CMN) advertising decisions.

Advertisers will pay more for faster data delivery

Eighty-five percent of respondents say they would pay a premium for same-day audience fulfillment, while 92% would increase spend with faster activation. Ninety-four percent said they would likely spend more with partners offering self-service audience-building tools. Advertisers reporting the strongest ROI are five times more likely than others to receive custom audiences the same day.

Las Vegas – September 29, 2026 -- Arity, a mobility data and analytics company founded by The Allstate Corporation, has introduced Arity Lead Platform, an insurance-native operating layer designed to give carriers direct control over customer acquisition spend and decisions across publishers, marketplaces, agents, and call centers.

Platform unifies fragmented acquisition systems into a single carrier-controlled layer

Insurance carriers currently invest across publishers, marketplaces, lead and call providers, agency networks, and CRM platforms that often operate independently, limiting visibility from acquisition spend through to customer outcomes. Arity Lead Platform builds on more than a decade of Arity's experience connecting insurers with publishers and marketplaces, extending that connectivity into a full operating layer with reusable connectors intended to reduce integration effort and speed partner activation.

The tie-up combines XDI's Multiple Company Intelligence (MCI) platform, which already assesses physical climate risk across more than 40,000 companies and subsidiaries, with Veridion's site-level data on operational activity, scale and status.

Washington – September 15, 2026 -- The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) released new research identifying which telematics metrics deliver the greatest value to motor carriers, exposing a gap between what fleets currently measure and what actually drives safety and operational gains.

Cost-per-mile ranks as top operations metric despite limited adoption

The report, titled "From Telematics Data to Decisions: High-Value Performance Metrics for Trucking Operations," found that managing cost-per-mile scored highest for importance among operations KPIs, yet only 73 percent of surveyed carriers currently track it.

Four safety metrics dominate current fleet adoption

Critical events, speeding, risky driving behavior and hard braking emerged as the four most widely used safety-related KPIs among motor carriers surveyed for the study.
