Executive Summary

Verisk published its 2026 Global Modeled Catastrophe Losses Report, estimating global insured average annual catastrophe losses at $171 billion, up $19 billion from the prior year and the highest figure ever reported. This is a non-financial, industry-facing research report, not an earnings release or operational update, and has no direct impact on Verisk's quarterly financial results or guidance.

Key Facts

  • The U.S. accounts for $117 billion (68%) of the global insured AAL.

  • At the 100-year return period, modeled aggregate insured losses reach $477 billion; at the 250-year return period, $606 billion.
  • Since 2012, the estimated global insured AAL has nearly tripled from $59 billion to $171 billion.
