  • Global Catastrophe Review – 2015
    GC BRIEFING An Update from GC Analytics© March 2016 GLOBAL CATASTROPHE REVIEW – 2015 The year 2015 was a quiet one in terms of global significant insured losses, which totaled around USD 30.5 billion. Insured losses were below the 10-year and 5-year moving averages of around USD 49.7 billion and USD 62.6 billion, respectively (see Figures 1 and 2). Last year marked the lowest total insured catastrophe losses since 2009 and well below the USD 126 billion seen in 2011. 1 The most impactful event of 2015 was the Port of Tianjin, China explosions in August, rendering estimated insured losses between USD 1.6 and USD 3.3 billion, according to the Guy Carpenter report following the event, with a December estimate from Swiss Re of at least USD 2 billion. The series of winter storms and record cold of the eastern United States resulted in an estimated USD 2.1 billion of insured losses, whereas in Europe, storms Desmond, Eva and Frank in December 2015 are expected to render losses exceeding USD 1.6 billion. Other impactful events were the damaging wildfires in the western United States, severe flood events in the Southern Plains and Carolinas and Typhoon Goni affecting Japan, the Philippines and the Korea Peninsula, all with estimated insured losses exceeding USD 1 billion. The year 2015 marked one of the strongest El Niño periods on record, characterized by warm waters in the east Pacific tropics. This was associated with record-setting tropical cyclone activity in the North Pacific basin, but relative quiet in the North Atlantic.

As of 10 August, four people were killed, some 8,000 people were left homeless, and 200 meters of railroads were washed away. More than 12,000 hectares of rice paddies were flooded in Kam Pot province alone. Floods Nov 1999 Continued torrential rains during October and early November caused flash floods and affected five southern provinces: Takeo, Kandal, Kampong Speu, Phnom Penh Municipality and Pursat. The report indicates that the floods affected 21,334 families and around 9,900 ha of rice field. IFRC's situation report dated 9 November stated that 3,561 houses are damaged/destroyed. So far, there has been no report of casualties. Flood Aug 2000 The second floods has caused serious damages on provinces in the North, the East and the South, especially in Takeo Province. Three provinces along Mekong River (Stung Treng, Kratie and Kompong Cham) and Municipality of Phnom Penh have declared the state of emergency. 121,000 families have been affected, more than 170 people were killed, and some $10 million in rice crops has been destroyed. Immediate needs include food, shelter, and the repair or replacement of homes, household items, and sanitation facilities as water levels in the Delta continue to fall.

    Information bulletin Philippines: Typhoon Melor Information bulletin no° 2 Glide number no° TC-2015-000168-PHL Date of issue: 18 December 2015 Host National Society: Philippine Red Cross Number of people affected: 222,438 persons (76,796 families) in six cities, 139 municipalities in 19 provinces [Source: NDRRMC] This bulletin is being issued for information only, and reflects the current situation. After the Typhoon Melor brought heavy to intense rains and strong winds over Central Philippines, the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) – with support of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) – has already deployed rescue and assessment teams to assist affected families and determine the extent of the damage caused by the typhoon. Funding or other assistance from donors is not being sought at this time; however a Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) request is currently being considered to support the immediate relief needs of the affected population. <Click here for detailed contact information> The situation Typhoon Melor (locally known as Nona) entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) in the morning of 12 December and intensified into a Category 3 typhoon the following day. According to Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), Typhoon Melor made landfall over Batag Island, Northern Samar province on 14 December and then tracked slowly west making a total of five landfalls on the way before exiting the last land mass on 16 December. The typhoon then tracked northward along the west coast of Luzon. As of 18 December, Typhoon Melor was last sighted as a low pressure area west of the Philippine Sea.
