This unique-to-the-industry tool is designed to transform how the insurance industry manages volatile weather risks, such as hail, tornadoes, and straight-line wind.

With severe convective storms causing approximately $70 billion in insured losses globally in 2023, the need for advanced risk management tools has never been more critical. KatRisk’s SCS model rises to this challenge by offering unparalleled precision and efficiency developed to meet the diverse needs of insurers, government agencies, and financial institutions.

Climate Variability Integration

Our model captures the impact of global climate patterns, such as El Niño and La Niña, on events. This empowers clients to compute their risk for various climate states.

Global Correlation 

Comprehensive correlation between perils and regions delivers a holistic perspective and improved risk management.

“As we continue to see an increased impact of severe convective storms, it becomes essential for the industry to leverage advanced modeling techniques that can keep pace with these changes,” said Jeffrey Chen, the CEO of KatRisk. “Our SCS model is a testament to KatRisk’s commitment to innovation and excellence in catastrophe risk modeling and client service.”
