Munich Re AG said Monday that it expects claims in the low
three-digit-million-euro range for last month's Beirut explosion,
also projecting a low triple-digit-million-euro amount for claims
related to hurricanes Hanna, Isaias and Laura in July and
August.
The German reinsurer previously said it expected significant
insurance claims from the explosion at the port in the capital of
Lebanon although it wasn't able to offer specific estimates.
Munich Re said losses related to the coronavirus pandemic
"developed with reduced momentum" since the end of June when
compared with the first half of the year.
