👉 An embowment is a type of investment or insurance policy that provides financial protection to an individual or family against potential losses due to natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, and wildfires. The term "embowment" comes from Latin and means "fire" in Greek, which suggests that the policy may be used to help cover the costs associated with a fire. This type of insurance can provide financial protection for individuals and families who are unable to pay for the damages caused by natural disasters.
