Sky-rocketing inflation changed the value of insured assets like property and equipment. Commercial properties may be undervalued by 30% for underwriting purposes and construction inflation has been between 12% and 40% per year since the pandemic.
Getting values correct is critical, with downstream effects for accurate loss estimates and risk modeling. Plus, the hard insurance market has created heightened scrutiny of estimated property values. Underwriters need detailed property valuation data to entertain new risks and renew existing policies.
It all adds up to companies being drastically underinsured leading to reduced claims that won’t pay for replacement costs and rebuilding expenses. We teamed up with RIMS and Starr Tech to examine how market conditions make it critical to get accurate valuations now.
