Transition Planning:
From Commitment to Implementation

Session #3
Pricing for the Climate Era - New Models
June 17, 2026 | 2:00– 3:00pm ET | Virtual
As climate-related losses escalate to unprecedented levels, traditional insurance pricing models are breaking down. Meanwhile regulators are grappling with how to allow insurers to price for rapidly evolving risks while maintaining affordability and market stability. This session explores innovative pricing strategies that balance actuarial soundness with social responsibility, including multi-year policies, forward-looking climate projections, and state-backed reinsurance mechanisms. Participants will gain an understanding of emerging pricing models and the regulatory reforms needed to implement them through perspectives from industry experts and consumer advocates.
Session #4
Building Resilience: Codes, Community Protection & Equity
September 15, 2026 | 1:00– 2:00pm ET | Virtual
The foundation of the insurance crisis is the dramatic growth through fires, floods, storms, and other physical risks. A key solution is building resilience at the community level through updated building codes, nature-based infrastructure, and equitable access to protection. This session examines the Strengthen Alabama Homes model, a comprehensive program combining regulatory reform, financial incentives, and industry collaboration to drive home hardening- and how other states are replicating this success.
