Abstract
Due to its peninsular and mountainous conformation, Italy is susceptible to almost every type of hazard among which seismic and hydrological hazards are the most common. The limited risk prevention and the legacy of uncontrolled urban expansion contribute to amplifying the risks and their impacts. Many schemes for property insurance coverage have been proposed in Parliament. The time has come to start a serious public debate.
