Louisiana Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon said that losses from Hurricane Ida could reach $30bn, positioning the storm to become “the largest loss event” in Louisiana’s history, exceeding losses from the deadly Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

In an interview with Inside P&C, Donelon noted that industry cat modelers predicted that losses from Ida could end up between $15bn and $40bn, “and I am seeing that all indications are that will be the case”, he said.
