Chuck Nyce is a driving force behind FSU’s research and public outreach on insurance coverage for hurricane-related risks. “Florida is hurricane central,” Nyce said. “We have the highest catastrophe risk in the world for hurricanes. The frequency and severity of hurricanes…there’s nothing else like it in the world. We are a peak zone. The world looks to us to solve this problem.”
Nyce focuses on how consumers can protect themselves from the potentially catastrophic financial consequences of a hurricane or other major storm. He has also studied financing for wind mitigation and home hardening projects. “Consumers have to understand that the federal government and the state government are not going to come in and bail them out after the fact.”
