Flooding is the most common natural disaster in the United States. It's also the most expensive, costing homeowners, insurers and the government billions each year. If most of your customer’s wealth is tied up in their house, they may be risking financial ruin without adequate flood insurance coverage. Financial institutions also must protect their financial interests as well. Natural disasters put those interests at risk. This webinar will discuss what flood insurance covers during a natural disaster, how much it costs, how it works, and who should consider adding it as well as ensuring your institution is compliant with Fair Lending requirements and how to build a successful program.
