Impact verdict
Low impact. Loss pathway is limited to excess mortality attributed to a heatwave in a single European country. There is no damage inventory, no quantified insured loss, and no specific insured casualty or liability exposure identified. Heat-related excess mortality in Belgium is a public health concern but does not, on current reporting, present a credible route to the USD 100m insured loss threshold.
