About this event
Experts say that the New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ), the largest active zone in the U.S. east of the Rockies, is at risk for a major earthquake. However, earthquake insurance coverage in the highest risk areas of the NMSZ has dropped dramatically in recent years, widening the gap between the insured and the uninsured.
This Summit, for the first time, brings together the insurance industry, regulators, government officials and emergency management professionals to forge new ideas to begin “closing the gap” on earthquake insurance in the New Madrid Seismic Zone. Join leading innovators and visionaries as they meet to start conversations geared to solve this critical issue. The 2022 Earthquake Insurance Summit is presented by:
- Missouri Department of Commerce and Insurance
- Missouri State Emergency Management Agency
- Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region VII
- Central U.S. Earthquake Consortium
The Summit is free to anyone interested in earthquake insurance and resilience. It is funded in part by a grant from the Federal government, National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program.
