GREECE: Only 18.2% of homes have insurance coverage against natural disasters and earthquakes

26 August 2025 — Marina MAGNAVAL
Insurance companies expect limited losses from the summer fires, given that the incentives provided by the state for home insurance have slightly increased the number of insured buildings in Greece, insurancedaily.gr reports.

At the same time, it is noted that in Greece only 18.2% of homes have insurance coverage against natural disasters and earthquakes, which means that in proportion to the total number of homes, the coverage rate is low.

Looking at the percentage of insured homes in the regions of the country that have damage from fires, it can be concluded that expected insurance compensation will be low, the source added.
