In this panel discussion recorded at EG's recent ESG Breakfast Briefing, deputy editor Tim Burke is joined by guests from the worlds of engineering, architecture, development and insurance brokerage to ask whether insurance is becoming a barrier to real estate achieving its net zero aims.
At the heart of the discussion is timber - the benefits of building with it, the challenges of insuring schemes that use it, and the collaboration needed between architects, developers and insurers to bring everyone on to the same page. Tackling the topic are:
