A WIDER MODEL SCOPE
As forest fire damage is not covered in France by the natural catastrophe compensation scheme, CCR only recently started working on this subject, in 2021. A first analysis carried out with the Euro Institute of Actuaries of the University of Western Brittany made it possible to design a Cat model based on machine-learning methods. To continue this work, an internship aimed at improving the physical modelling of the hazard. The objective of this paper is to present the hazard model developed to model the occurrence and spread of forest fires.

Cyclones are extreme weather events that cause significant damage in the overseas territories. To establish an automated hurricane watch and to be able to forecast the consequences of a hurricane in terms of insured losses, CCR, in collaboration with RiskWeatherTech, has set up an operational chain for the monitoring and modelling of cyclone activity in the Antilles and Réunion Island.
