ATLANTA (June 1, 2023) - With hurricane season quickly approaching, businesses must have the right insurance coverage to protect against potential losses. Hurricanes can cause extensive damage to buildings, equipment, and inventory, resulting in
significant financial burdens for businesses. Mallory Agency, a best-in-class, privately-held insurance broker with a national reach and strong roots in Georgia, provides insurance, risk management, claims, and proactive services to clients facing risks,
including hurricane destruction.
Mallory Agency provides the following five services to help businesses prepare for the upcoming hurricane season:
(1) Guidance on Hurricane Preparedness and Risk Assessment
Mallory Agency regularly reviews risk assessments to identify potential hazards, assess vulnerability, and develop updated mitigation plans to ensure they remain effective.
(2) Offers Parametric Insurance
Mallory Agency understands that traditional property policies can leave gaps in coverage, specifically when it comes to named storms like hurricanes. With the increase in risk and cost in property insurance, especially on the southeast coast, we are seeing mandatory higher deductibles for clients. Parametric insurance is a strategic tool to
offset those deductibles. Parametric payments are trending with a 30-day payout. According to Matt Mallory, CEO of Mallory Agency, "Natural disasters, and specifically hurricanes, have crippled the property market. Parametric has recently emerged and is a complement to – not a replacement of – flood insurance. The trigger for a claim is wind speed not property damage. The coverage is a useful transfer of risk, but, (relatively speaking) highly specialized specific coverage comes at a higher cost. It asks for fewer details before reimbursement."
(3) Becomes a Business Partner
Mallory works closely with businesses to understand their unique risks and needs. They believe the actual work and partnership begins the first day after binding your insurance ⎯ becoming a part of the team to guide every step of the way. This helps protect the bottom line and improves overall risk management practices and resilience.
(4) Maintains a Pulse on the Market Place
Understanding the marketplace is critical to strategically placing a client's risk. Mallory has senior-level relationships with our markets enabling them to place businesses with the least resistance.
(5) Proactive Service
Mallory is a proactive services firm that believes in calling clients regularly to guide and advise how to pivot and course correct when needed strategically.
