Other Repercussions and IssuesOther Repercussions and Issues
There are other, major consequences that follow from mega-catastrophes:
Class action lawsuits spurred in part by a lack of appropriate coverage for perils that end up being uninsured.
Finding sympathetic juries for trials of those accused of perpetrating insurance fraud.
The debt incurred by the National Flood Insurance Program and other public entities, such as wind pools, requires taxpayers to assume a long term debt to support recovery efforts.
The political furor that results from either personal loss experience or from the perception of utter breakdown in response and recovery efforts.
A change in the way insurers manage risk and exposure that often includes increased premiums or higher deductibles or non-renewed policies.
