Uncertainty in Insurance Coverage for Natural Disasters in the Netherlands

A report highlights significant inconsistency in disaster insurance coverage in the Netherlands, particularly during events like the 2021 Leersum windstorm and the recent flooding in South Limburg. Researchers from Utrecht University and Erasmus University emphasize the lack of clear government policy on compensating victims after such disasters. They argue that climate change will exacerbate these challenges, urging the need for transparent criteria on governmental disaster funds and urging insurers to cover storm damages more comprehensively.
