Lack of preparedness for hydrometeorological events costs Mexican companies more than 25 million pesos per day, according to data from the Association of Mexican Insurance Institutions (AMIS). Between 2012 and 2024, an average of P7.591 billion was paid out annually for insurance claims related to storms, heavy rains, and floods, an increase of 91% compared to 2001-2012.
According to the National Water Commission (Conagua), this panorama reflects the increasing operational and financial vulnerability of companies, especially during the hurricane season, which lasts until November 30th.
Forecasts for 2025 indicate high cyclone activity, with the potential for eight to nine tropical cyclones, four to five Category 1 or 2 hurricanes, and up to six strong Category 3 or higher hurricanes.
Given this scenario, Eduardo Gutierrez, managing partner at Aikos, a consulting firm specializing in insurance and risk management, recommends strengthening three fundamental pillars: adequate insurance, robust internal protocols, and predefined strategic alliances.
Regarding insurance coverage, Gutierrez cautions that just having insurance does not guarantee adequate protection. “A comprehensive policy for hydro-meteorological events should take into account at least the following elements: coverage against hurricanes, storms, hail, landslides and floods, protection against interruption of activities and loss of income, damage to goods during transport or use outside the factory, additional costs for temporary relocation, debris removal and cleanup, and a priority claims processing process,” the experts elaborate.
Additionally, we recommend that you regularly review your insurance values and keep the location of your assets up to date.
A storm response plan (ERP) should include the following five steps:
Annual plan.
initial and final preparations.
Correspondence during the event.
Post-recovery work including training.
Continuous update of procedures.
Beyond insurance, internal protocols play a critical role in risk management. “It is very relevant that the protocol includes secure communication channels, sectoral responsibility assignments, and loss documentation mechanisms to facilitate management with insurers and reduce the impact on business continuity,” said Alicia Martinez, vice president of Property & Casualty, Automotive and Fixed Income at Aikos.
