Why non-peak perils deserve more attention

It is no secret that tropical cyclones or earthquakes cause high losses year after year. But what about non-peak perils, sometimes referred to as secondary perils? Cumulative losses from these events – including severe thunderstorms, floods and wildfires – are on the rise in many regions around the world. This trend is influenced by both socioeconomic factors and climate change. The changing frequency and intensity of these events can have an economic snowball effect, which warrants more attention from our industry.

This seminar will therefore focus on non-peak perils. How are they developing? Which factors are driving non-peak perils? What should insurers keep in mind when dealing with them?

• Analysis of selected non-peak peril developments
• Main drivers of changing loss situations and loss amounts
• The role of climate change and potential future projections
