Episode Synopsis

In this episode of the Weekly Insurance News Wrap, Paige Estritori discusses the ongoing federal inquiry into insurance practices in the wake of the 2022 Queensland floods. The investigation, led by Daniel Mulino, has uncovered marked discrepancies in loss evaluation, often due to confusing insurance jargon. The need for clear, tenant-centric policies and fair settlements for disaster-affected residents has been clearly highlighted. Representatives from organizations like Community Plus+ and Tenants Queensland emphasized that such issues hamper crisis recovery, particularly for vulnerable policyholders. The inquiry's findings will be pivotal to shaping future insurance policy discussions. Join Paige next week for more insight into the Australian insurance scene.
