The webinars will bring agents the latest information on how and when the new pricing methodology for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) will be implemented.
The webinars are designed specifically for independent agents to learn more about FEMA’s new pricing methodology for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
The hearing covered topics including the structure of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), the role of private flood insurance, and Risk Rating 2.0.
More than $600 million in premium and 160 active insurers—a nice start to private flood. Where is this line of business most prevalent and which insurers are focused on it?
The new information provides localized rate analysis at the zip code level for all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as flood mitigation actions for policyholders.
The National Flood Insurance Program will be hosting a number of Risk Rating 2.0 – Equity in Action webinars designed for insurance agents throughout June and July.
FEMA has branded Risk Rating 2.0 as “Equity in Action”—and it’s easy to see why. It will revolutionize the way the NFIP rates are structured, making the process fairer and easier to understand for those looking to purchase federal flood insurance.
The Big “I” submitted a statement on the need for a long-term reauthorization of the National Flood Insurance Program, and also submitted comments on proposed interagency Q&As on private flood insurance.
The act would require FEMA to release an impact analysis at least six months before National Flood Insurance Program changes, and prohibit certain changes during and up to six months after the COVID-19 emergency declaration.
The legislation would reauthorize the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) for five years and clarify that private flood insurance can satisfy the NFIP’s continuous coverage requirements, a top priority for the Big “I.”
