Together we're watching property risk evolve rapidly
for Canada's insurance market. Inflation and recession present a dual
economic threat, made worse by geopolitical turmoil. Meanwhile, extreme
climate events are accelerating in Canada and across the world. These
changes make it more urgent, yet harder, to maintain insurance-to-value across
property portfolios - how are you managing the pressures and impact of
inflation? To help you navigate 2023, we're sharing expert insights from
Opta, Canada's market leader in valuations. Join this webinar to hear the
latest trends in material costs and gain insights on the effects on
reconstruction costs caused by economic turbulence.
Learning Outcomes:
- Learn about the latest trends in reconstruction
costs across Canada
- Understand the regional/provincial impact on
costs/material/labor caused by inflation, climate change and material
shortages
- How has this changed year-over-year and where do
we see it going?
- Gain insights on how to navigate and manage the
impact and changes on your portfolio
