Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Insurance Equity Analyst Matthew Palazola tells Bloomberg This Weekend that Hurricane Isaias could generate insured losses in the single-digit billions of dollars, with stronger Florida building codes potentially limiting damage despite rising property values. Speaking with hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini, Palazola says two relatively mild hurricane seasons have helped insurers rebuild capital, while recent Florida insurance reforms have improved market conditions but have yet to face a major test. -------- Watch Bloomberg Radio LIVE on YouTube Weekdays 7am-6pm ET Saturday & Sunday 7am-10am ET WATCH HERE: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/BloombergRadio Subscribe to our Podcasts: Bloomberg Daybreak: http://bit.ly/3DWYoAN Bloomberg Surveillance: http://bit.ly/3OPtReI Bloomberg Intelligence: http://bit.ly/3YrBfOi Balance of Power: http://bit.ly/3OO8eLC Bloomberg Businessweek: http://bit.ly/3IPl60i List
