Capital Markets
Rising insurance costs are impacting property operating margins, valuations, and investment decisions. Lindsay Brugger, VP of Urban Resilience for ULI, will moderate this panel of CRE insurance experts as they analyze why insurance prices have recently been rising so sharply, examine the impacts of rising costs on CRE including changing lending standards, and explore strategies for securing property insurance coverage for varied development project typologies. The panel will dive deep into how migration patterns, demographic changes, climate events, and both federal and state regulations have made permanent impacts to the CRE insurance industry and identify CRE market response trends and best practices.
