Moderator: Usha Rodrigues, University Professor & Kilpatrick Chair of Corporate Finance & Securities Law Panelists: Albert Lin, Martin Luther King Jr., Professor of Law, U.C. Davis School of Law Mark Nevitt, Associate Professor, Emory University School of Law Rob Hoyt, Dudley L. Moore, Jr., Chair of Insurance and Professor, UGA Terry College of Business The panel’s discussion will center around articles regarding insurance retreat authored by Professors Albert Lin and Mark Nevitt. Professor Lin’s scholarship, Public Insurance as a Lever for Semi-Managed Climate Retreat, discusses (a) “the growing reluctance of private insurers to offer policies in climate-vulnerable areas, the accompanying rise of state-backed insurance, and ongoing managed retreat efforts;” (b) the “objectives of public insurance programs;” and (c) “how governments might try to advance these objectives as climate change worsens.” Similarly, Professor Nevitt’s scholarship, Climate Risk, Insurance Retreat, and State Response, contemplates (a) the “causes and effects of insurance retreat;” (b) “how various government insurance programs can and have responded to insurance retreat;” and (c) comparisons between various government insurance programs. Professor Usha Rodrigues will elicit responses from Professors Lin and Nevitt regarding their respective research and proposals, while drawing upon Professor Hoyt’s applied understanding of the insurance industry. The panel will conclude with approximately ten minutes of audience question and answer. - External Identifiers:
