Abstract: Natural disasters exert a significant impact on human communities, property, infrastructure, and the environment. Understanding the need for insurance coverage against the consequences of such events is essential for an effective response to the losses they generate. One of the key aspects of this analysis is the impact of natural disasters on the insurance market and the strategies for managing these risks.
