Tropical storms — whether hurricanes, typhoons, or cyclones — can bring significant destruction as affected regions are hit by heavy rain, strong winds, or extreme flooding. The potential devastation requires organizations to take action to prepare for the potential impact of severe storms to their people, their properties, or their supply chain.
In this episode of Risk in Context, Rob Powell, Marsh’s Global Chief Claims Officer, and Mike Rouse, Marsh’s US Property Practice Leader, discuss the actions that business leaders should be taking to prepare for storms, practices that should be put in place to aid recovery, and how companies can streamline a claims process. Arti Chopra, managing consultant, Strategic Risk Consulting Group within Marsh's Advisory, discusses the importance of building resiliency both ahead of and during tropical storm season and acting on lessons learned.
