7 Risk Analysis Modelling Platform (RAMP)
The size and diversity of our global portfolio has enabled us to develop a market-leading Risk Analysis Modelling Platform (RAMP). This helps us benchmark Property Damage and Business Interruption insurance programmes. In December 2012, the RAMP won the ‘International Broker Innovation of the Year’ Insurance Times award on behalf of Bowring Marsh. Using data points such as critical catastrophe, deductibles, key sub-limits, loss limit, loss ratio, mega watts, region of exposure, total insured values and type of power generation, the RAMP enables us to provide important in-depth management information on a confidential basis to: Present a clear visual representation of how any insurance programme compares to that of others in the same industry Compare local programmes (in the same region as the insured) to those available from international markets Provide quick ‘ball-park’ estimates for either new or renewing business based on historical trends.
