Determining the single biggest claim in the history of insurance can be challenging as it depends on various factors, including the type of insurance, the nature of the claim, and the currency used for valuation. Large insurance claims often arise from catastrophic events, natural disasters, or major industrial accidents.

One notable example is the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United States. The insurance industry faced substantial claims related to property damage, business interruption, and liability. The total insured losses resulting from the 9/11 attacks were in the tens of billions of dollars.

Natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes, and floods have also led to significant insurance claims. For instance, Hurricane Katrina in 2005 resulted in massive insurance payouts for property damage and other losses.

Additionally, major industrial accidents and environmental disasters have generated substantial claims. The Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010, for example, resulted in significant insurance claims related to environmental damage and business interruption.
