In this episode, Leader's Edge speaks with Lance Malcolm, president of U.S. network solutions at Crawford & Co., about wildfire resilience in Europe and the United States.
With wildfires scorching Spain and southern France this summer, and nearly 8 million acres burned in the United States to date in 2026, Malcolm draws parallels between the two regions’ exposure and building practices. He discusses decentralized U.S. building codes versus Europe’s national standards, shares why brokers should push clients to fortify their properties, and considers how fire response planning has evolved over the past several decades.
