Historical Events

AIR's historical event sets contain simulations of historical events. Typically, they use the parameters of the events and the resulting event intensities, for example, wind speeds in the case of tropical cyclones and shaking intensity in the case of earthquakes. The parameters are applied to current exposures to estimate the resulting total insurable loss for each event.

For detailed information about the events included in AIR's historical event sets, see the Touchstone Historical and World Scenarios Events spreadsheet on the AIR Client Portal (login required).
