Disasters present a broad range of human, social, financial, economic and environmental impacts, with potentially longlasting, multigenerational effects. The financial management of these impacts is a key challenge for individuals and governments in developed and developing countries. G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors and Apec Finance Ministers have recognised the importance and priority of disaster risk management strategies and, in particular, disaster risk assessment and risk financing. The Oecd has supported the development of strategies for the financial management of natural and manmade disaster risks, under the guidance of the Oecd HighLevel Advisory Board on Financial Management of Largescale Catastrophes and the Oecd Insurance and Private Pensions Committee. This work has included the elaboration of an Oecd Recommendation on Good Practices for Mitigating and Financing Catastrophic Risks and a draft Recommendation on Disaster Risk Financing Strategies The Financial Management of Flood Risk extends this work by applying the lessons from the Oecd's analysis of disaster risk financing practices and the development of its guidance to the specific case of floods.
