Record Making Flooding In Europe From June 17- Mid July: Latest Aon Catastrophe Report capturing severe flood from June 17-25 and 28-30 in Western and Central Europe will cost insurers well over $4.5bn claims bill. Those affected, Czech Republic (particularly South Moravia). This includes other parts of Europe, with the total insured impact anticipated to exceed $3.4bn. Insurers liability constitute Europe’s costliest in history and fifth globally, surpassing the previous European record of US$4.3bn set by storm Andreas in 2013.

The scale of massive gap shows that the economic loss expected to be as much as eight or ten times the roughly US$1.4bn estimated insurance market loss from the event.
