In this IIL real estate webinar, Chris Hughes covers the impact of inflation on claims, the issues that are being faced, the outlook for the coming years and ways to smooth the process.

Description

Over the last 12 months, we’ve all seen a rise in the cost of living as the consumer price index has increased. Several factors have led to this increase, including higher energy prices. Strong global demand, supply chain issues and shipping costs have also added to price pressures.

This talk will look at how these factors are influencing the claims trends we are seeing and the impact on claims costs as a result.
