PZU expects over 30k claims after last week’s storms

WSE-listed, state-run insurer PZU expects the total number of claims filed in the aftermath of last week’s storm to “significantly exceed 30k,” the company said. So far the number of property and farm damage claims reached 16k, while the number of vehicle damage claims is in the 6k range. The company assures that it is working very closely with those affected by the extreme weather conditions and has allocated 1,000 workers to service the claims. Six people died, and dozens were injured in heavy storms that hit Poland last Friday. Over 170,000 people were left without power and 800 buildings were damaged, mostly in northern and western Poland.
