To help better understand these issues, QBE is pleased to offer the 2024 Commercial Construction Risk Report, with timely information about the risks commercial construction companies are facing today and will face in the future.

Such companies may not have the resources to address certain exposures or the financial reserves to absorb the disruption and significant losses caused by some risks.
