The Consorcio de Compensación de Seguros (CCS) has just edited issue 15 of its digital magazine, Consorseguros (www.consorsegurosdigital.es), which we hope will be of interest to you.
The volcanic eruption on the island of La Palma during the last quarter of 2021 has made the Editorial Board of Consorseguros Digital dedicate the second issue of this year to "Insurance cover of volcanic risks". In it, we set forth aspects related to this eruption and to the CCS's management of it and the forecasts on this point. No less important is the comparative study, provided by seven international collaborations, of the evaluation, management and insurance coverage of this type of risk, with examples on all the continents.
We would like to remind you that you may access all the contents through the magazine's web site.
