This session will explore how LDI is transforming the way construction companies manage post-completion defects. Unlike traditional insurance, which often requires proof of fault or liability, LDI provides a first-party solution that delivers direct financial support without the need for lengthy legal disputes. The panel will examine how LDI fills a critical gap in the U.S. construction insurance market by helping clients save significant time and cost when addressing structural defects.
Key topics will include what challenges LDI solves, how it works in practice, how it complements existing coverages, and insights into pricing, market development, and real-world application.
