From the Banking Crisis to the Insurance Crisis: Teresa Bryce Bazemore on the Future of Housing

In this week's episode, we're joined by Teresa Bryce Bazemore, a nationally respected housing finance leader whose more than 35-year career has spanned mortgage banking, mortgage insurance, financial services, corporate governance, and risk management. From leading major financial institutions through periods of unprecedented market disruption to serving on the boards of some of the nation's leading financial organizations, Bazemore has helped shape the future of housing finance while advancing solutions that strengthen housing opportunity and financial stability. Bazemore joins NHC President and CEO David Dworkin to discuss how lessons learned from leading through periods of financial instability can inform today's housing policy and the future of housing finance. They also examine the growing role insurance plays in the housing affordability crisis, why rising premiums, shrinking coverage, and increasing financial pressures are creating new challenges for homeowners, renters, lenders, and housing providers alike, and how NHC's Residential Property Insurance Collaborative (RPIC) is bringing together leaders from the housing and insurance sectors to develop practical solutions that improve affordability, resiliency, and long-term market stability.
