Risk Management Solutions catastrophe modeling firm said today it estimates storm Kyrill, which swept across Europe last week, caused an estimated $4-to-$7 billion of insured losses.

This compares with Boston-based AIR Worldwide's model estimate of a Kyrill storm insured loss of $5.2-to-$10.4 billion. AIR said its estimate includes insured losses from damaging wind to onshore properties only.

The storm struck the U.K. while deepening off the coast of Northern Ireland early Thursday morning. After losing strength, Kyrill re-intensified over Denmark, making a heavy strike on Germany and countries farther east.
