The upcoming Tokyo Olympics, which will be held without fans following a recent state of emergency declaration, will likely cost reinsurers up to $400 million in payouts for ticket and hospitality refunds, according to Fitch Ratings.

That’s just 10-15% of what would have been lost had the event been canceled, as many have advocated in the wake of COVID-19’s continued impact around the world, and particularly in Japan, where just 17% of the population is fully vaccinated. If the Olympics had been canceled, it would have been the largest single-event insurance loss in history.
