The Perfect Storm Driving America’s Insurance Crisis
ABOUT THE EPISODE
Insurance costs are skyrocketing — and it’s not just inflation. It’s a full-blown insurance crisis.
We’re facing a perfect storm where rising repair costs collide with the growing intensity of billion-dollar weather events. Storms are hitting harder, more often, and the financial fallout is reshaping entire markets.
In this episode, Bill breaks down what’s really behind the surge in premiums, why insurers are struggling to stay afloat, and what these shifts mean for property owners, investors, and the broader credit markets.
Understanding the drivers of this insurance crisis is essential to protecting portfolios.
