As a forum where risk and insurance is discussed in much, if not all, of its infinite complexity—project-specific designer liability, workers compensation loss ratios, claims documentation—the International Risk Management Institute’s Construction Risk Conference can fill your head with information, ideas and worries. Unlike the Associated General Contractors’ risk conference, IRMI’s conference is open to journalists.
That leaves attendees free to wander among all of the technical seminars, as I do, chatting with the presenters and mixing with numerous brokers and insurance carriers, who sponsor the parties. It takes some time to find out what’s really on their minds.
