Sharp Reduction in State Hail Insurance Rates
The state board announced a sharp cut in hail insurance rates for Lincoln to Powell counties, setting a maximum rate of five percent of policy face value. The move aligns with Montana law and reflects lower hail damage in the region, contrasting with higher eastern Montana rates. If losses are light, rates may fall below the maximum.
