INTRO

Property insurance markets have undergone intense hardening in recent years, driven by increased extreme weather events, rising claims costs, as well as inflationary and supply chain pressures. Against this backdrop, enhancing portfolio performance is a constant challenge when the access to reliable and accurate data is limited. Insurers need better market strategies and underwriting practice to unlock sustainable growth and balance their property insurance portfolio.

At Swiss Re, we can help you optimise efficiency and decision making throughout the insurance value chain by harnessing the power of data, novel models and advanced analytics.
