The statistic presents the value of catastrophe bonds issued worldwide from 2006 to 2015. Catastrophe bonds are financial instruments allowing to raise money in case of a catastrophe. They are usually used by insurance companies to transfer some risk to cat bonds investors. If a catastrophe occurs, the insurance companies can use the money coming from cat bonds to pay out the premiums to the insurance holders. If there is no catastrophe in the specified time frame, the cat bond investors get their money invested in the bond back, increased by a coupon. The value of catastrophe bonds issued globally amounted to 5.92 billion U.S. dollars in 2015.
