Analysts from the University of Cambridge, who annually provide data on the impact of catastrophic events on global GDP, presented a study "Cambridge Global Risk Outlook 2020", according to which, as a result of catastrophes in 2020, the global economy could lose $ 584 billion. This figure increased by 3% compared to with last year and +1.55% of 2020 GDP.
According to preliminary estimates by the Swiss Re Institute, total economic losses from natural and man-made disasters in 2019 amounted to about $140 billion, of which $56 billion was covered by insurance and reinsurance.
