Over the last decades, due to the rapidly changing production processes in aquaculture worldwide (e.g., submergible cages, sea ranching, intensification, aquaponics and recirculation systems), which sometimes increase vulnerability to disease outbreaks and which generally require large investments from aquaculturists, the demand for insurance to share and cover the risks involved has increased significantly within the aquaculture sector. Besides, disasters (e.g., oil spills, white spot disease in shrimp culture, tsunamis, storms, red tides) that have hit the aquaculture sector and affected the livelihoods of aquaculture producers, their families and their communes, have been many in recent years. Farmers went bankrupt and societies encountered social disruption from one day to another due to loss of employment, food and income. Apart from this, the consequences for the environment (like escapes from cages as a result of storm damage) are difficult to assess.
