National CPCU Live Webinar
Flood: The New Frontier of Rising Risk and Coverage
Presenters: Steven Fischl, CPCU, ARM-E, ARe, and Adam Kendall, CPCU, API, AINS
April 23, at 2 p.m. ET
Floods are striking harder, reaching farther inland, and costing more than ever before. Join us for this webinar, presented in collaboration with the Underwriting Interest Group, where Steven Fischl, VP, Regional Product Leader, PRS at Chubb, and Adam Kendall, CPCU, API, AINS, VP and Flood Product Leader at Chubb Personal Risk Services, North America, examine how shifting weather patterns, aging flood zone maps, and an overburdened federal program are reshaping the risk landscape for insurers and policyholders alike. Drawing on real data from recent catastrophic events, including Hurricane Katrina's lasting impact on New Orleans, they walk participants through the growing frequency and cost of flood disasters, the benefits and limitations of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), and what underwriters need to know to better protect their clients in today's environment.
Key Takeaways:
- Identify why flood risk is a growing threat in areas not traditionally considered flood zones
- Explain the benefits and limitations of the NFIP and what gaps in coverage mean for policyholders
- Describe how rising flood losses are reshaping underwriting decisions across the United States
