From wildfire underwriting and builders risk to emerging insurance technology, the Property Guardian team is hitting the road this fall to connect with insurers, underwriters and industry partners across the U.S. and Canada.
The next several weeks will take Property Guardian to industry events across North America, with opportunities to talk about how better wildfire intelligence can support risk selection, portfolio management, mitigation and active event response.
We’re also kicking things off with an upcoming webinar focused on one of the biggest shifts facing property insurers today: the expansion of wildfire risk beyond California.
September 17: Beyond California — Wildfire Risk in Expanding Markets
On Thursday, September 17, Property Guardian’s Brian Bastian, Head of Product, and Paul Brady, ARM, CWMS, Head of Wildfire Insights & Mitigation, will join the International Underwriting Association (IUA) of London for the remote session Beyond California: Wildfire Risk in Expanding Markets.
Alongside Robert Crowder of Tucker Ellis LLP, Brian and Paul will explore how wildfire exposure is evolving across Canada, Texas and the Pacific Northwest—and what underwriters should consider as the risk expands into markets with less standardized guidance and historical loss experience.
