FAQs
The dynamic risk landscape and recent events have highlighted several significant property and related risks that companies face. Weather and climate change risks, such as the greater frequency and severity of floods and wildfires, remain high on the list. Increasing instances of civil and political unrest worldwide have resulted in extensive property damage in affected cities and countries. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted many businesses’ ability to manufacture and distribute goods and services, as did cybersecurity breaches that led to takeovers of control systems.
