    Cresta (soft drink)

    Cresta was a frothy fruit-flavoured drink produced in the United Kingdom from the early 1970s through to around 2007. It originally came in four different flavours: strawberry, lemon & lime, pineapple and orange;blackcurrant was added later.

    Advertising campaign

    Cresta is widely remembered for its 1970s advertising campaign led by a cartoon polar bear (also called Cresta) sporting sunglasses whose attempts at looking suavely cool would be overwhelmed by bouts of uncontrolled enthusiasm when drinking Cresta. The bear's widely quoted catch phrase "It's frothy man!" summed up the difference between Cresta and more traditionally fizzy soft drinks. This campaign was created by John Webster of Boase Massimi Pollitt, who also invented the Smash (instant mashed potato) advertisements featuring robotic aliens and the Honey Monster in Sugar Puffs campaigns.

    Cultural references

    Cresta is mentioned, more than once, in the song The Unfortunate Gwatkin by the band Half Man Half Biscuit on their 2014 album Urge For Offal.

    CRESTA

    CRESTA (Catastrophe Risk Evaluation and Standardizing Target Accumulations) was founded as a joint project of Swiss Reinsurance Company, Gerling-Konzern Globale Reinsurance Company, and Munich Reinsurance Company. CRESTA has set itself the aim of establishing a globally uniform system for the accumulation risk control of natural hazards - particularly earthquakes, storms and floods. Those risk zones are essentially based on the observed and expected seismic activity, as well as on other natural disasters, such as droughts, floods and storms. CRESTA zones regard the distribution of insured values within a region or country for easier assessment of risks. CRESTA Zones are the essential basis for reinsurance negotiation and portfolio analysis. Nowadays, CRESTA sets widely accepted standards which apply throughout the international insurance industry. CRESTA zone information is used by most insurers for assessing the insurance catastrophe premiums they will charge.

    Origin of the name

    While the acronym CRESTA stands for Catastrophe Risk Evaluation and Standardizing Target Accumulations, the name was derived from the name of the hotel (Cresta Hotel) where the founding meeting occurred, and the subsequent creation of a suitable acronym to correspond to the name.
