A recent research study was conducted by the CSIR, Santam, the Centre of Criminology, University of Cape Town and WWF in the Southern Cape titled "Insurance in a Changing Risk Landscape: Local Lessons from the Southern Cape of South Africa". The objectives of the study were to understand how changes in Eden’s landscape were affecting current and future risk exposure to wild fire, flood and sea storm; and to understand how best the insurance industry could respond to ensure its own viability, as well as build the resilience of the socio-ecological system as a whole. You can access a PDF copy of the report directly here>>>>>.
