<abstract displayLabel="Summary">In the insurance industry, to call a risk insignificant can be a dangerous claim to make. Nature has surprised the world time and time again with catastrophes that were beyond widely held beliefs. Such an event occurred in 2004 when we saw the first tropical cyclone ever confirmed off the coast of Brazil. Ten years on, a new scientific study explores the main atmospheric conditions that influence tropical cyclones in the South Atlantic. Its findings are featured in this publication. They point towards an important observation: while the generally low number of storms in this region can be explained convincingly, Brazil is not free from tropical cyclone  risk</abstract>
