Marsh Report On Assessing The Risks of Green Building
Marsh issued a report today on finding from a survey of 55 construction industry participants in different geographical locations on the risks associated with green building. The survey can be downloaded here.
Some interesting findings:
1. Financial risks and standard of care/legal risks ranked highest in terms of threats to green building projects. p. 7
2. The insurance industry continues a "wait and see" approach to covering green risk. p. 15
3. Firms involved in one or more aspects of green building shouold seek the services of an attornet with experience in green risks. p. 15
