This July, Economical Insurance will be increasing the commercial building inflation factor for Small and Medium Enterprises (SME), Mid-Market, and Agribusiness customers.
Inflation is the rate which the price of goods and services rise, and as a result, the purchasing power of currency lowers. Inflation rates vary from year to year, and from currency to currency. So, how will this affect the mentioned customers?
During the review and renewal of your policy, it's important to check in with your broker and make sure that your amount of insurance coverage is sufficient, and accurately reflects the replacement building value. Especially with lumber costs taking such a leap.
Far too often, the repercussions of underinsuring for the correct value of homes and building projects only become clear once it's time to make a claim. You'll want to make sure that you're covered for any fixes or rebuilds. So that won't have to come out of your pocket.
