    General description

    Claims involving per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are rapidly expanding throughout the US and Europe. From long-tail environmental exposures to false advertising claims, the universe of PFAS-related litigation presents an array of challenges for insurers and reinsurers. In recent years, underwriters have sought to remove PFAS liability from coverage through PFAS-specific exclusions, but legacy policies remain unclear as to with whether PFAS-related claims are covered in a rapidly changing regulatory landscape.
