地震险

earthquake insurance

Fu Mingquan, a resident of Longmen, Sichuan province, was glad to learn that earthquake insurance covering houses would be available on a trial basis in areas prone to quakes.

四川省龙门的居民付明全得知将在地震易发区试行住房"地震险"很高兴.

"地震险"可以用earthquake insurance表示,住房地震险(earthquake insurance covering houses)属于巨灾保险(catastrophe insurance)的重要品种,该险种优先选择中国地震局确定的地震易发区(earthquake-prone zones)为试点地区.

根据方案,将建立地震保险基金(earthquake insurance fund),资金来源涉及政府拨款、保险费计提、社会捐赠等多方面.这项政策将缓解用于灾后住房重建(post-quake housing reconstruction)的资金短缺.尽管方案未透露具体保险费(insurance premiums),但指出各级财政提供60%的保险费补贴.

保险责任范围(insurance coverage)包括震级在M5级及以上的地震及由此在72小时内引起的泥石流(debris flow)、滑坡、地陷(ground subsidence )、地裂(ground fissure)、埋没、火灾、火山爆发及爆炸造成的房屋直接损失.
