Catastrophe events projected to meet and exceed MX$300 million to be considered for designation under this service. After a preliminary insured loss estimate is published, PCS releases updated estimates approximately 60 days until the team arrives at a final industry insured loss estimate. These updates keep insurers, their customers, regulators, and other interested parties informed about the total costs of disasters. The threshold for resurvey estimates is MX$950 million.
