Climate and environmental change, increasing development and urbanisation, and mounting exposure to natural hazards are imposing growing pressure on insurers and reinsurers to seek ways of limiting exposure, reducing vulnerability and building resilience. The PG Cert Natural Hazards for Insurers provides students with a better understanding of natural hazards and the means by which their impacts on the market may be mitigated or avoided. A strong emphasis is placed on developing an improved understanding of natural hazards, including their global distribution and manifestation, the data available and their uncertainties and limitations, and relevant cutting-edge research. The content focuses on hazards of most immediate interest to the market, notably windstorms, floods, wildfires and earthquakes, but also addresses broader topics, such as dam and reservoir safety, resource management and marine pollution response. The programme provides analytical and practical tools for making more informed decisions in day-to-day encounters with natural hazards, exposure and loss.
