The insurance market for social housing providers has always been quite restricted, however in the field of property and liability this has hardened severely and quickly since the start of 2023. This has been accelerated by the departure of two main insurance providers to the Sector, meaning the already limited capacity is much reduced. This has resulted in unsustainable market conditions, and we have seen insurers react this year applying significant rate increases on Renewals during 2023. PCH intend to go out to the marketplace for a new contract for Insurance Provision and this procurement process will commence 2026 Q1 with a target effective date contract date of 1st October 2026.",
