Bermuda in the Daily Ceteris

Questions from the daily puzzle where the answer is Bermuda.

Which economy of about 64,000 people is home to an insurance industry that wrote roughly $362 billion of premiums in 2024 — some forty times the value of everything the place itself produces?

That ratio is not a rounding error. GDP counts only what is produced on the island — salaries, fees, rent — while the premiums are written on Florida hurricanes and European windstorms that never touch it. Bermuda's business is holding other countries' risk on its balance sheet, and its regulator reports $664 billion of claims paid to US policyholders alone between 2016 and 2024. source
