Severe convective storms remain a top loss driver, and recent years have shown how rising storm frequency, sharper intensity and growing exposure values are reshaping the global loss picture. Traditional views of this “secondary peril” are no longer sufficient, with aggregation pressure and pricing uncertainty mounting across portfolios. As reinsurers confront escalating volatility and climate-linked shifts in storm behaviour, the need for more granular modelling, smarter diversification and disciplined capacity deployment has never been more urgent.
By attending this webinar, you will:
- Assess how reinsurers can refine modelling techniques to better capture secondary peril volatility and regional variations in storm behaviour.
- Discuss strategies for portfolio diversification and risk transfer in response to escalating SCS losses.
- Evaluate the influence of climate trends, urban expansion, and construction inflation on future exposure and reinsurance pricing dynamics.
