Assessing the Impact of Extreme Weather on China’s Disaster Insurance Framework
China's Extreme Weather Challenges
China is currently experiencing a rise in extreme weather events, including severe droughts, devastating floods, and dangerous landslides. These incidents are leading to substantial economic damage across the nation.
The Need for Improved Disaster Insurance
To address these challenges, China’s insurers require enhanced financial tools that can effectively mitigate risks associated with extreme weather. Currently, the existing disaster insurance framework is insufficient to cope with the growing frequency and severity of these natural disasters.
