The plenaries covered the current approaches to measuring and funding the Risk, the challenges in funding high-risk areas, the financial and non-financial impacts of catastrophes on communities, and managing the uncertainty of the future.
The Q & A sessions allowed for vigorous discussion with a wide variety of viewpoints thrown into the ring.
All in all, it was a very good Seminar and well run and organized.
