For over 60 years, Assuratome has brought together the main players in the nuclear sector to ensure coverage of the risks specific to this industry.
In most countries, the specific characteristics of nuclear risks prompted insurers in the late 50s to create a dedicated structure for this type of risks.
Insurers and reinsurers operating on the French market have pooled their insurance capacities into Assuratome in order to cover pacific nuclear risks.
Created in 1957 as an association, the ‘French Pool for Atomic Risk Insurance’, which became a GIE (Economic Interest Group) in 1969, took the name Assuratome in 1995.
The members of Assuratome are insurance and reinsurance companies operating in the French market, which provide the GIE with financial capacities allocated to nuclear risk insurance.
Assuratome’s capacities are complemented by those of nuclear insurance pools operating in most countries with a civil nuclear industry. Assuratome also offers these pools its own reinsurance capacity for covering risks worldwide.
