    Through an account of Chile's remarkable recovery after a catastrophic earthquake in 2010, this book unearths a set of leadership principles that are relevant to anyone at the helm of public or private organizations facing risk. Leadership Dispatches is at once the story of nation that shifted into high gear after a major disaster, and an instructive guide for leaders coping with increasingly widespread and menacing crises

  • Toward economic flood loss characterization via hazard simulation

    Open AccessJeffrey Czajkowski, L Cunha et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    Among all natural disasters, floods have historically been the primary cause of human and economic losses around the world. Improving flood risk management requires a multi-scale characterization of the hazard and associated losses—the flood loss footprint. But this is typically not available in a precise and timely manner, yet. To overcome this challenge, we propose a novel and multidisciplinary approach which relies on a computationally efficie…

  • Determining tropical cyclone inland flooding loss on a large scale through a new flood peak ratio-based methodology

    In recent years, the United States has been severely affected by numerous tropical cyclones (TCs) which have caused massive damages. While media attention mainly focuses on coastal losses from storm surge, these TCs have inflicted significant devastation inland as well. Yet, little is known about the relationship between TC-related inland flooding and economic losses. Here we introduce a novel methodology that first successfully characterizes the…

    Les catastrophes en série survenues depuis 2001 aux États-Unis ont causé des pertes historiques et obligent à repenser les fondamentaux de la couverture financière du risque et le rôle des secteurs public et privé en matière d’assurabilité des désastres. Dans un marché fortement régulé, aux intérêts économiques et politiques locaux importants, les grands assureurs se désengagent des États américains les plus exposés, faute de pouvoir charger le p…

    This paper examines the role that insurance has played in dealing with terrorism before and after September 11, 2001, by focusing on the distinctive challenges associated with terrorism as a catastrophic risk. The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (TRIA) was passed by the U.S. Congress in November 2002, establishing a national terrorism insurance program that provides up to $100 billion commercial coverage with a specific but temporary risk-sh…
