Verisk Expands Model Exchange Access With Addition of KatRisk Catastrophe Risk Models Verisk said catastrophe modeling firm KatRisk will join the Verisk Model Exchange, its open, vendor-neutral catastrophe risk modeling platform.
The addition expands access to third-party models covering flood, storm surge, tropical cyclone, wildfire and earthquake perils.
Verisk said the move is aimed at supporting more transparent and defensible underwriting, portfolio management and capital decisions for insurers and reinsurers.
The key takeaway is that Verisk is broadening the range of catastrophe models available on its platform, which can make its ecosystem more useful for insurers and reinsurers that want multiple modeling perspectives on key risks.
Investors may want to watch how quickly third-party adoption grows on the Model Exchange, since deeper usage by external model providers and clients can be an indicator of the platform’s commercial traction and data relevance. Tillkännagivande • 3h
Katrisk Enters Agreement to Join Verisk Model Exchange to Expand Access to Catastrophe Risk Models KatRisk entered into an agreement to join Verisk Model Exchange to further expand the open catastrophe risk modeling ecosystem. Verisk Model Exchange is a catastrophe modeling platform that enables the evaluation of multiple independent views of catastrophe risk within a single governed, vendor-neutral platform where open standards ensure every model runs on a consistent financial engine. With more than 20 third-party model providers and over 400 peril models, the platform supports side-by-side model comparison, standardized analysis, and more informed underwriting, portfolio management, capital planning, and regulatory decision-making. KatRisk’s models, which include inland flood, storm surge, tropical cyclone wind, severe convective storm, wildfire, and earthquake, incorporate climate variability and forward-looking hazard behavior, providing additional perspectives on various natural catastrophe risks. Adding KatRisk models to Verisk Model Exchange will expand access to specialized catastrophe insights, particularly for new geographic territories and perils where additional modeling perspectives support a clearer understanding of exposure and improved resilience. Models available through Verisk Model Exchange span global natural catastrophe perils, including wildfire, severe convective storm, tropical cyclone, storm surge, inland flood, and earthquake, enabling insurers and reinsurers to access independent model perspectives within a single platform. The platform also supports cyber risk modeling, with specialist vendor models available alongside natural catastrophe models, bringing physical and digital risk perspectives together to help the industry address increasingly interconnected risk exposures. Verisk Model Exchange operates on standardized catastrophe modeling framework and supports access via user interface or API, enabling insurers and reinsurers to integrate third-party models into existing workflows while accommodating a governed, vendor-neutral auditability and the appropriate treatment of intellectual property. Verisk acquired Model Exchange—formerly known as Nasdaq Risk Modelling for Catastrophes—in 2025 to develop an open, multi-vendor catastrophe modeling platform designed to expand access to independent risk insight and support more transparent, defensible decision-making across global insurance markets.

The launch of Verisk Commercial Rebuild comes at a crucial time when underinsurance and rebuild values are significant concerns for the industry and policyholders.

Verisk Unveils First-Of-Its-Kind SRCC Catastrophe Model for the U.S. to Quantify Political Violence Risks Verisk is releasing the industry's first-of-its-kind catastrophe model to help quantify the financial impacts of strikes, demonstrations and civil commotion (SRCC) in the United States. Since 2010, strikes, demonstrations, and civil commotion events have led to more than USD 10 billion in insured losses globally, compared to less than USD 1 billion for terrorism. In the past six years, the insurance industry has faced five events, each causing over USD 1 billion in global insured losses. Verisk's new SRCC model was built to enhance the way underwriters and risk managers approach the increasing risk posed by SRCC events in the U.S., which has experienced approximately USD 3 billion in insured losses. The Verisk SRCC Model for the U.S. has a 500,000-year stochastic catalog, capturing the frequency and severity across the spectrum of plausible loss-causing unrest across every ZIP Code in the country. It predicts the severity of an event by evaluating the key drivers of risk, including social and economic trends, political factors and historical protest patterns. The probabilistic model can provide enhanced insight for exposure management and catastrophe modeling teams that have traditionally been reliant on historical, generic civil unrest data and subjective assessments. The SRCC Model combines almost 40 years of catastrophe modeling expertise from Verisk's Extreme Event Solutions business with 15+ years of experience from its global risks business, Verisk Maplecroft, in quantifying political violence. This unique approach offers insurers and reinsurers a compelling solution that will enable them to: Estimate potential insured losses from SRCC events and quantify the potential financial impact of risk for individual locations and at the enterprise level. Create robust underwriting guidelines to specifically account for SRCC related damage and associated business interruption. Assess tail risk through a catalog of stochastic events which feature scenarios that are inherently plausible, but far worse than anything that has been seen historically. Address risk management and regulatory requirements by stress testing extreme disaster scenarios to reveal potential vulnerabilities before real disasters occur. Tillkännagivande • Apr 16

Verisk Launches Cargonet Routescore API to Combat Mounting Cargo Theft Verisk launched CargoNet RouteScore API, a solution aimed at significantly minimizing the risk of cargo theft. RouteScore API uses a proprietary algorithm to generate a cargo theft route risk score that provides a relative measure of probability that crime and loss will occur along any route in the U.S. and Canada. Verisk CargoNet is uniquely positioned to deliver an industry-leading cargo theft scoring algorithm that provides unparalleled accuracy and insight with the use of best-in-industry data and analytics. RouteScore measures the probability of a loss for individual risks by assigning a score of 1 to 100 — with 1 representing the lowest likelihood. RouteScore is based on critical factors such as cargo type, value, length of haul, origin, destination, day of the week, and the theft history of truck stops. In addition to generating a score, the model also observes the key variables that most influenced the score and provides a list of the riskiest truck stops along the route. Empowering companies to protect their cargo proactively, a high-risk score of 98, for example, may prompt the implementation of additional security measures such as tracking devices, driver teams, relays, escorts or securing parking spots in advance and more. Additionally, users can align high-risk lanes with best-in-class carriers, helping to ensure optimal security measures are in practice. This powerful solution is available in an API format, facilitating integration with third-party Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and proprietary systems. Additional third-party platforms, such as supply chain risk management, fintech, insurtech and telematics platforms, will also be able to source the solution and make it available for customers.
