The cost of extreme weather in Europe
Update: 2025-06-03
Description
In Europe, flooding was the most prevalent—and most expensive—climate peril last year, making 2024 the “Year of the Flood.” On this episode of Critical Point, five authors of Milliman’s annual Extreme Weather in Europe report assess the toll of flooding in their country and the response from insurers, governing bodies, and communities. They discuss what Italy is doing to protect the insurance industry, how construction in the UK and France may be contributing to flood risk, and why new regulations in Romania and the Benelux region may not do enough to keep pace with climate change.
