HURRICANE BACKGROUNDER: CLAIMS AND PROPERTY LOSS INFORMATION

JERSEY CITY, N.J., June 1 — The U.S. hurricane season, which begins today and runs through November, exposes tens of millions of people living along the Eastern Seaboard and Gulf Coast states to devastating property losses from hurricanes and tropical storms.

The attached fact sheet is a useful source of background material for your coverage of natural disasters in the coming months. The information is compiled from Insurance Services Office, Inc.'s (ISO) Property Claim Services (PCS) database on property losses for man-made and natural disasters.

The fact sheet highlights significant information on past catastrophic events, including hurricanes, and the cost of insured property damage those events produced. ISO spokespeople are available to provide analyses of catastrophe losses.

AIR Worldwide Corporation (AIR), ISO's catastrophe- and weather-risk-modeling subsidiary, can also assist you in your coverage of hurricanes and other catastrophes. Using its sophisticated simulation models, AIR can estimate insured property losses from extreme events in real time. In the case of hurricanes, estimates are made prior to landfall. AIR's scientists, engineers and catastrophe-risk experts are available to comment on the science and financial impact of extreme events. Contact Mike Gannon at [phone] or [e-mail].
