Secondary Risk Characteristics

Secondary Risk Characteristics (SRCs) are features of a building and/or its environment that can impact the building’s vulnerability to damage during an event. They are important contributing factors to losses sustained by residential, commercial, and industrial properties.

This collection provides a summary of SRCs currently supported in Verisk models, as well as peril-specific SRC documentation.
