Abstract

Depending on their causality, ground movements can be stated as natural disasters and insured by the French natural disasters insurance system. This article analyzes the inventoried claims and compensations from 1995 to 2006 and explains the limits of this approach. It assesses the ground movements cost in metropolitan France during this period. This economic assessment is also broken down considering the different types of ground movements.

Keywords: cost, ground movements, natural disasters, insurance.
