Session
To secure sustainable premiums in a demanding market, social housing providers must transition from reactive claims handling to proactive, data-driven risk engineering. Managing these key areas will be critical: Climate & property resilience, underinsurance, contractor insolvency, damp & mould and fire safety. The session promotes a proactive approach to risk management, data transparency, and collaboration between housing providers and insurers to ensure long-term resilience and sustainable coverage.
