S&P Global Ratings says the severity and frequency of bushfires and floods facing Australia is increasing. The firm has warned that the credit ratings of the nation’s banks, insurers, and state and local governments could potentially be downgraded if this trend continues. S&P Global Ratings adds that insurers face the greatest risk from weather-related events, given that they are set to experience two successive years of large losses.
