Cyber threats are no longer just a concern for large corporations. Businesses of every size can face serious disruption when systems are compromised or sensitive information is exposed.

Cyber liability insurance can help cover the real-world costs that follow an incident, including business interruption, customer notification expenses, legal fees, crisis management, and support for restoring operations. It is not just about recovering from a cyberattack. It is about being better prepared before one happens.

At Nesbit Agencies, we can help with your cyber protection program so businesses can better understand their risks and coverage options.

Where does Minnesota rank for fire and flood risk?

The statewide numbers provide useful context, but they do not tell the full story about an individual home. Location, drainage, surrounding vegetation, rebuilding costs, finished basements, and policy details can all influence your actual exposure.

Our latest article looks beyond the rankings to explain:
• Minnesota’s recent fire and wildfire data
• Why flood risk is not limited to waterfront homes
• The difference between flood and water backup coverage
• Key areas homeowners should review in their policies

The goal is not to create concern. It is to replace assumptions with clear information.

Your home’s market value is not the same as the cost to rebuild it.

Market value reflects what a buyer may pay for your home, including the location and land. Replacement cost considers what it would take to reconstruct the home using today’s materials, labor, building codes, and specialized finishes.

That difference matters. Insuring your home based only on its sale price could leave you with a significant coverage gap after a major loss.

Learn what affects replacement cost, why rebuilding may cost more than expected, and when it is time to review your coverage:

Agriculture has always required resilience. But today’s producers are navigating a more complex risk landscape than ever.

Weather patterns are shifting. Operating costs continue to rise. Sustainability expectations are growing. Producers are balancing profitability with long-term soil health, water retention, crop performance, and the future of their operations.

David Buss of AgriCap Group shares how agricultural insurance is becoming more specialized and more personal.

The old model of one-size-fits-all coverage does not always reflect the reality on the ground. Two farms may face very different exposures based on location, practices, weather conditions, crop rotation, and long-term strategy.

That is why risk management in agriculture is increasingly about more than reacting after a loss. It is about helping producers make informed decisions, navigate transition periods, and stay operational through difficult seasons.

For farms, families, employees, and future generations, stability matters.

And as agriculture continues to evolve, insurance needs to evolve with it.

This edition focuses on one central theme: resilience.

Across agriculture, business operations, customer experience, and personal leadership, the pace of change is forcing organizations to think differently about risk. Weather patterns are shifting. Operating costs are rising. Customer expectations are changing. Technology is reshaping service. And business owners are being asked to prepare for more uncertainty without losing momentum.

Inside this issue, we explore:
• How Nesbit Agencies is supporting regenerative farming through captive insurance solutions
• Why agricultural risk management is becoming more personalized and long-term
• How businesses can strengthen fire preparedness during higher-risk summer months
• What CEOs need to know about customer service, AI, employee experience, and loyalty
• Simple ways to positively disrupt your mindset each day

At Nesbit Agencies, we believe risk management is about more than policies. It is about helping people, businesses, farms, and communities prepare for what is next.

Fire prevention is not complicated, but it does require consistency.

Summer can increase fire-related risks for many businesses. Warmer temperatures, dry conditions, heavier equipment use, outdoor operations, electrical systems under strain, and combustible materials can all create vulnerabilities that are easy to miss during day-to-day operations.

That is why the Summer 2026 issue of Risk & Business Magazine includes a practical look at fire preparedness.

A stronger strategy starts with a few key questions:
• Have you walked through your operation with a critical eye for fire hazards?
• Are electrical systems and equipment being maintained regularly?
• Are combustible materials stored properly?
• Is fire suppression equipment accessible and functional?
• Does your team know what to do if an incident occurs?
• Is your insurance program aligned with how your business actually operates?
• Do you have a recovery plan before you need one?

The best time to prepare is before a loss happens. With the right planning, businesses can reduce disruption, protect people, and recover more quickly when the unexpected occurs.

Preparation today is what protects tomorrow.

Farmers are often rewarded for yield. But yield alone does not tell the full story of a farm’s resilience.

In this issue, we look at how traditional agricultural credit and insurance systems can overlook key factors like soil health, weather volatility, and the transition costs involved in regenerative farming.

Many producers want to adopt practices such as cover crops, crop rotation, and no- or low-till farming. These approaches can support long-term soil health, water pe*******on, and operational stability. But the transition can also come with upfront investment, planning challenges, and the possibility of temporary yield changes.

That is where new insurance thinking becomes important.

Nesbit Agencies, the American Agribusiness Association, Transformational Investing in Food Systems, and other partners are working on captive insurance models designed to give farmers more flexibility and support as they move toward soil-centered practices.

The goal is not just to insure crops. It is to help build a stronger system around the producers taking meaningful steps toward long-term resilience.

Your home. Your vehicle. Your health. Your life.

Personal insurance helps protect what matters most, but the right coverage depends on more than one policy. Home, auto, life, health, renters, umbrella, watercraft, travel, valuable possessions, and other coverage options may all play a role depending on your lifestyle and needs.

As life changes, your coverage should change with it. A policy that fit a few years ago may not reflect your current home, family, vehicles, assets, or responsibilities.
