More than <\/span><b>600,000 hectares burned across the European Union in 2026<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece particularly affected.

Severe convective storms remained the largest contributor, accounting for approximately <\/span><b>USD 28 billion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But these figures require context. Catastrophe losses depend not only on the intensity of an event, but also on where it occurs and what assets are exposed. During H1 2026, several severe storms simply avoided some of the most highly exposed areas in the United States.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The longer-term trend is much more significant. Europe now experiences <\/span><b>64% more days above 30\u00b0C than in the 1950s<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, according to Swiss Re Institute. Wildfires remain a relatively small component of European insured losses, but they are the world&#8217;s fastest-growing weather peril. European insured wildfire losses have increased by an estimated <\/span><b>8\u201311% per year in real terms since 1970<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, insurers cannot interpret a quieter six months as evidence of reduced exposure. One major hurricane, flood, earthquake or wildfire can fundamentally change annual results, while the structural drivers of losses \u2014 climate change, concentration of assets in exposed areas and higher reconstruction costs \u2014 continue to intensify. Swiss Re therefore points to resilience and risk reduction as increasingly important conditions for maintaining both the <\/span><b>availability and affordability of insurance<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e97582 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8e97582\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-1030x517.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-28566\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-1030x517.png 1030w, https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-300x151.png 300w, https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-768x386.png 768w, https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-1536x771.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52-18x9.png 18w, https:\/\/www.asquarepartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Capture-decran-2026-09-01-a-10.58.52.png 2044w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f81ad57 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f81ad57\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">From climate risk to insurability risk\u200b\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a11170d elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a11170d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This brings the insurance industry to a fundamental question: <\/span><b><i>how do you price a risk that is itself changing?<\/i><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to actuarial science professor Katrien Antonio, insurers will increasingly need more sophisticated climate-risk models. Historical claims data alone are no longer sufficient. New approaches combine information on building characteristics and topography with satellite imagery, climate and weather data, while artificial intelligence can help identify relationships across these increasingly complex datasets.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This evolution is likely to affect insurance premiums, but not necessarily through sudden, widespread price increases. Antonio expects the impact to emerge progressively. The more fundamental issue could eventually become insurability itself: <\/span><b><i>can properties located in highly exposed areas continue to obtain sufficient coverage at an affordable price?<\/i><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reinsurance will play a decisive role. If reinsurers reduce their appetite for certain locations or hazards, primary insurers may find it increasingly difficult or expensive to maintain coverage. Better modelling can help insurers understand and price those exposures, but modelling alone cannot remove the underlying physical risk.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Climate change could also affect life insurance and pensions. More frequent heatwaves can influence mortality patterns, potentially requiring actuaries to adapt longevity and mortality assumptions over time.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b194c7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b194c7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Belgium's \u20ac2.3 billion warning\u200b\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b0e656 elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1b0e656\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Belgium, the 2021 floods remain perhaps the clearest illustration of what happens when an extreme event exceeds the assumptions underpinning the insurance system.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The floods resulted in approximately <\/span><b>74,000 claims worth \u20ac2.3 billion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, making them the costliest natural catastrophe in Belgian history. Five years later, AG Insurance CEO and Assuralia Vice-President Heidi Delobelle warns that the question of how another catastrophe of similar or greater magnitude would be financed has still not been fully resolved.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The insurance industry&#8217;s statutory capacity has increased substantially since 2021. According to Delobelle, the legal ceiling has been multiplied by 4.2, bringing insurers&#8217; current capacity for a flood event to around <\/span><b>\u20ac1.9 billion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Yet this remains below the \u20ac2.3 billion cost of the 2021 floods, while studies suggest that future events in both Flanders and Wallonia could generate losses several times larger.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge is to avoid shifting unlimited catastrophe risk onto insurers. Setting their compensation obligations too high could make reinsurance unavailable or prohibitively expensive, ultimately threatening the affordability of coverage for households. Delobelle therefore advocates a clearer <\/span><b>public-private framework<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> capable of sharing extreme catastrophe losses while keeping insurance accessible.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And the issue is far from theoretical: storms in Belgium at the end of May and June 2026 alone are expected to cost insurers approximately <\/span><b>\u20ac450 million<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eac763a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"eac763a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">From compensation to prevention\u200b<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14dbb64 elementor-widget-mobile__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"14dbb64\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role of insurance in a changing climate may therefore need to evolve from simply <\/span><b>paying for damage to actively helping reduce it<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prevention is becoming increasingly central to this shift. Insurers can encourage policyholders to protect buildings against floods, fires and other climate hazards, while the principle of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">build back better<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can make reconstruction after a claim an opportunity to improve resilience rather than simply restore the previous situation.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But insurers cannot address systemic climate risk alone. Public investment in flood infrastructure, water management and climate-resilient urban planning remains essential. Delobelle points, for example, to creating more space for water through flood expansion areas as a way of significantly reducing future damage.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This increasingly makes climate resilience a shared responsibility between <\/span><b>individuals, insurers, reinsurers and public authorities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
