Abstract
Japan is one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world and a considerable volume of earthquake insurance is written
by private insurers. Therefore, a report on earthquake insurance in Japan has been prepared for the I3th ASTIN Colloquium.
We will first summaries, from recent results of seismological studies, the matters which would form the basis for a study of
earthquake insurance, and then explain how this insurance actually works in Japan.
