Hurricane Otis made landfall near Acapulco, Mexico on October 25, 2023 as the strongest hurricane ever to strike Mexico's Pacific coast, causing catastrophic destruction to the city and surrounding region. The event represents a major insured loss event for Property, Energy, and Marine books with significant reinsurance implications given the scale of destruction to a major coastal resort and commercial hub. The rapid intensification prior to landfall likely reduced preparedness and may amplify claims complexity.
