27% of Romania’s total surface area, 25% of Bulgaria and 34% of Czech Republic are covered by forest. Roughly half is commercially planted trees representing significant investment. Forest fires, wind and disease are real risks that cause severe loss and economic damage.
Insurance penetration for forest remains surprisingly low. CertAsig is pleased to present its new forest insurance product, fully reinsured by Lloyd’s Syndicates.
