The increasing occurrence of natural disasters is anticipated to drive the expansion of the commercial property insurance market in the coming years. Natural disasters are severe events resulting from natural Earth processes, including earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires, which cause widespread property damage, loss of life, and major disruptions to everyday activities. The frequency and intensity of these disasters are growing due to climate change, more extreme weather conditions, and human activities that affect the environment. Commercial property insurance provides businesses with financial protection against losses caused by natural disasters by covering repair expenses, property damage, and interruptions to business operations. For example, in January 2024, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a US-based federal scientific agency, reported that in 2023 the United States experienced 28 individual weather and climate disasters, each resulting in losses of at least $1 billion. As a result, the rising number of natural disasters is contributing to the growth of the commercial property insurance market.
