Catastrophe modeller Risk Management Solutions (RMS) has increased its estimate of insured losses from Hurricane Wilma to between $8bn and $12bn.

Earlier this week, RMS projected that insured losses from Wilma would fall in the range of $6bn to $10bn.

The modeller's updated damage estimate is a response to "further analysis of the wind speeds" and includes expected losses stemming from wind and coastal storm surge and business interruption claims.
