Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Managing earthquake risk in Asia Pacific

Notes: Sumario: The 2011 Tohoku earthquake struck Japan's north eastern coast and Tohoku region. It was the largest in Japan since modern instrumental recordings began 130 years ago, triggering a destructive tsunami. The total insured loss from the Tohoku earthquake was estimated at around $35bn with the estimated economic cost more than $300bn, making it the costliest natural disaster in history. The destructive tsunami waves contributed a substantial portion of the total damage and highlighting the importance of sub-perils to the quantification of the financial risk of large offshore earthquakes.Related records: En: Asia insurance review. - Singapore : Ins Communications Pte Ltd., 2009- = ISSN 0218-2696. - 01/06/2020 Número 6 - junio 2020 , p. 20-21Materia / lugar / evento: Terremotos Catástrofes naturales Riesgos extraordinarios Riesgos meteorológicos Mercado de seguros Gerencia de riesgos Cuantificación del riesgo Evaluación de riesgos Asia Other categories: 7
