Property resilience is becoming a competitive advantage.

Initiatives promoting hail-resistant roofing and stronger construction standards reflect a broader shift across the insurance industry: a growing focus on preventing losses, not just recovering from them.

As severe weather risks continue to evolve, resilience measures can help reduce damage, strengthen business continuity, and improve long-term preparedness.

The conversation is shifting from "How do we recover?" to "How do we prevent loss in the first place?"

A new Canadian study is raising red flags about e-scooter safety among young riders.

ā€¢ Hospitalizations
ā€¢ ICU admissions
ā€¢ Fatalities

Researchers noted that many incidents involved a single rider, often without a helmet or adult supervision.

For parents, businesses, municipalities, and insurers, the growth of micromobility highlights the importance of understanding emerging risks and ensuring appropriate protections are in place.

As transportation continues to evolve, so must our conversations around safety, responsibility, and insurance.

Connect with Axis Insurance to discuss how evolving trends like micromobility could affect your risk profile: secure.axisinsurance.ca/axis/welcome/

As communities across British Columbia continue to face wildfire threats, our thoughts are with those affected.

Wildfire losses aren't always confined to the fire zone. Smoke damage, evacuation orders, and business interruption can have significant financial impacts long before flames reach a property.

Understanding how your insurance coverage responds before an event occurs can help reduce uncertainty when it matters most.

Canada responds with dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs on U.S. goods.

The latest escalation in the Canada-U.S. trade dispute is creating uncertainty for businesses across the country.

But tariffs don't just increase costs.

They can affect supply chains, property values, inventory levels, business interruption exposures, and insurance adequacy.

The question isn't just "How will tariffs impact my business?"

It's also: "Has my risk profile changed?"

We're proud to see Grant Alsop, an Account Executive at Axis Insurance, sharing his expertise with CityNews to help those affected by recent wildfire events.

Grant emphasized the importance of starting the claims process as soon as possible following a loss. Early action can help connect policyholders with an adjuster and begin accessing available support, including temporary accommodations and additional living expenses where applicable.

He also highlighted the broader impact of increasingly frequent wildfires in British Columbia. As wildfire risk continues to influence insurance markets, homeowners may see rising premiums and changes in coverage availability, particularly in higher-risk areas.

One important piece of advice Grant shared is to consider renewing your insurance policy during the winter months, when wildfire activity is typically lower. During quieter periods, insurers often have greater capacity and more options available, giving homeowners increased flexibility when reviewing coverage and exploring alternatives.

At Axis, we're proud to have experts like Grant who embody our Client-First mindset, providing trusted advice and guidance before, during, and after a claim.

Whether you're reviewing your current coverage or exploring your options, our team is here to helpāž”ļø https://secure.axisinsurance.ca/axis/welcome?_gl=1*15pye0g*_gcl_au*ODAyNTUzNjA3LjE3ODEwMzA4NzM.*_ga*MTA1MDAyOTI2OS4xNzYwNDY2ODYy*_ga_YMCFELJSG1*czE3ODcyNjU5NjMkbzQzMSRnMSR0MTc4NzI2NjQ0OCRqNTckbDAkaDA.

What happens when a cyber attack is designed to destroy, not extort?

The recent cyberattack on global medical technology company Stryker is part of a broader pattern targeting infrastructure and industrial organizations.

šŸ”¹ No ransom demand.
šŸ”¹ Data exfiltrated and then erased.
šŸ”¹ Systems disrupted with no clear recovery path.

This is a different kind of loss. When data cannot be restored and attribution is unclear, coverage may not respond as expected.
