Losses from Hurricane Humberto will prove minor in insurance loss terms, coming in at well under $1 billion, according to loss modeling firms.

Their estimates arrived as a ninth storm, Ingrid, was formed in the Atlantic.

Risk Management Solutions in Torrance, Calif., said it does not expect that total estimated insured losses will exceed $500 million, and Eqecat in Oakland, Calif., said estimated “ground-up” damages, including monetized additional living expense, “are unlikely to exceed $1 billion from this event”–and impacts of deductibles and limits will reduce the “insured loss” to less than this.
