Frequently Asked Questions

We help you assess whether your current limits, deductibles, or programme structure are aligned to your actual risk exposure, using catastrophe modelling, financial simulations, and event data to support better-informed negotiations and placements.

Yes. Insurer models often lack transparency or may not reflect your portfolio’s nuance. We provide an independent view, validating model assumptions and giving you a clearer picture of risk, pricing, and alternative structures.

Absolutely. Whether it’s a hurricane heading for key assets or a renewal approaching in a hard market, we provide real-time analytics to help you respond with confidence, and leverage data in your negotiations.

That’s not a barrier. We work across multiple platforms and can ingest your data in almost any format. Where needed, we use our own tools to rebuild and enhance analysis based on what's available.

Not at all. While we support large accounts, we also assist smaller portfolios or mid-market clients where analytical input adds value. Even a simple deductible analysis or hazard mapping exercise can materially improve your renewal outcome.
