This discussion explored the findings in The Geneva Association’s report, An Investigation into the Insurability of Pandemic Risk, which addresses a number of previously unanswered questions:
What are the protection gaps in the areas of business interruption, health and mortality?
How much capacity do insurers have to absorb related losses and help close these gaps?
Which criteria determine whether a risk is insurable?
How do the characteristics of pandemics – and their level of insurability – compare to other catastrophic risks?
