What happens when you combine a changing climate, increasing exposure in high risk areas, and a build-up of burnable vegetation?
As we saw during the 2017 and 2018 wildfire seasons, those factors combined led to seven of the most destructive wildfires in California History. Wildfire risk has increased to the point where it can now be considered a peak peril, akin to earthquake or hurricane. (Re)insurers must manage it accordingly.
This discussion will examine the factors contributing to elevated levels of wildfire risk in the U.S., mitigation measures that can reduce location-level risk, and the science of fire hazard and vulnerability modeling
