Flood Insurance - FEMA's Risk Rating 2.0 Program: Equity in Action

Wednesday, June 23, 3:00pm Eastern

In this FREE public webinar, David Maurstad, FEMA Deputy Associate Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation and senior executive of the National Flood Insurance Program, will provide an overview of FEMA's new pricing methodology, Risk Rating 2.0: Equity in Action. Risk 2.0 leverages industry best practices and cutting-edge technology to enable FEMA to deliver rates that are actuarily sound, equitable, easier to understand and better reflect a property's flood risk. Under the new pricing methodology, FEMA is fixing longstanding inequities in the NFIP's flood insurance pricing and establishing a system that is better equipped for the reality of frequent flooding caused by climate change.
