The move comes in response to the increasing frequency of extreme weather events such as the recent catastrophic hurricanes in the south-eastern US, and aims to strengthen community resilience and business continuity.

It builds on the $350m resilience credit announced in 2023 and a $300m credit in 2022.

The previous resilience credits have led to FM clients implementing protective measures against natural hazards such as wind, floods and wildfire, potentially reducing economic impacts by more than $30bn.

FM chairman and CEO Malcolm Roberts said: “The FM resilience credit highlights the essential role that mutual partnership plays with our clients in our work together to protect their purpose and drive risk out of their organisation.
