1 Long-Term Recovery After a Disaster: International Comparisons Ilan Noy EQC-MPI Chair in the Economics of Disasters Professor of Economics Victoria Business School
2
3 The build-back back-better better tale
4 The Vision At CDC we remain fully focused on our vision that in 2031 Christchurch is recognised as the best place for business, work, study and living in Australasia. Tom Hooper, CEO, Canterbury Development Corporation (from the Canterbury Report, Autumn 2014, p. 3)
5 Good comparisons? Galveston, TX 1900 San Francisco 1906 Messina 1908 Tokyo 1923 Kobe 1995 New Orleans 2005 Smaller places? (Napier?)
6 Kobe: What Happened?
7 Kobe s decline (per capita income) Hyogo Synthetic Hyogo
8 Looking at Kobe s wards and towns Example results: Population for Nishinomiya Synthetic Nishinomiya
9 Kobe: Population (% deviations from synthetic counterfactual)
10 Kobe: Taxable Income (% deviations from synthetic counterfactual)
11 Kobe: Unemployed (% deviations from synthetic counterfactual)
12 Conclusions about Kobe s EQ impact Long ong-run negative impact on Kobe s economy Population and income are all below the counterfactual, while the number of unemployed is above. This varies by Wards: The central and most devastated wards were negatively affected. Those less devastated, or near Osaka were not affected, or even benefited. This despite of a massive government investment and a quick reconstruction period.
13 Other cases? Dustbowl Katrina Hilo tsunami Man made events?
14 What s happening in Canterbury?
15
16 Any warning signs?
17 The cost of rebuilding %GDP %GDP 2.0 June Dec June Dec June
18 Insurance
19 Legal Complications
20 Population - Canterbury Females Males -4,000-3,000-2,000-1, ,000 2,000 3,000 4,000 5,000
21 Business migration - Canterbury
22 More recent warning signs? The commercial rebuilding in the CBD area has slowed down recently. Volume of building consents is increasing, but fairly slowly. Residential housing pressures are mounting. Very low unemployment rate without corresponding increase in migration. University in trouble.
23 Why hurry? What can prevent a bad outcome? Speed Post-reconstruction employment A functioning CBD What can speed up the rebuild? Insurance The courts
24 Central vs. Local Gov t
25 The bigger picture? Cavallo et al. (2013): No long-run adverse impact of catastrophic natural disasters on national GDP. Do we care about Christchurch? h h?
