WILDFIRE RISK

Communities in danger

Homeowners and insurers face massive losses as wildfires burn like never before.

INSURING AGAINST WILDFIRE

Better data means better protection

Climate change and real estate development mean wildfires are growing bigger and more destructive, threatening families and their greatest assets: their homes. Now insurance companies must meet this increasing risk responsibly, with an eye toward the future.

That’s why insurers are joining forces with modelers, scientists, and fire service leaders to better quantify wildfire risk. Together, we can harness data and technology to help anticipate fires, mitigate their damage, and protect everyone. Explore how.
