Financial management of large-scale catastrophes

Policy issues in insurance no. 12:

This book contains three reports focusing on different institutional approaches to the financial management of large-scale catastrophes in selected OECD and non-OECD countries, the role of risk mitigation and insurance in reducing the impact of natural disasters, and the importance of strategic leadership in the management of non-conventional crises.

This publication supports the ongoing activities of the International Network on the Financial Management of Large-Scale Catastrophes established by OECD to address the financial management of catastrophic risks issues and develop sound policies.
