Brings ModEx closer to Data and Users
Insuring against natural catastrophes, such as hurricanes, is a multibillion-dollar industry. (Re)insurance companies in this market rely on mathematical models to analyze risks and the potential damage of events. These models help (re)insurers calculate the financial implications of catastrophes to ensure they have enough capital to pay the claims and remain solvent.The marketplace for cat risk models has remained unchanged for the better part of three decades and so has the technology. This has meant that while the cloud and hosted environments have developed significantly, (re)insurance companies have had to settle for resource-heavy, legacy in-house hosting systems.
