Australia is no stranger to bushfires, and as large parts of the country experience hotter days, dry conditions, and increased fire danger, it’s more important than ever to be prepared.

In practice, the market rarely works that way. Very little resets overnight. What tends to carry forward are habits, perceptions and positioning.
