Workflow

From 15,000 El Niño years to flood hazard maps.

  1. Synthetic El Niño events

    Simulation of 15,000 El Niño years.

  2. Synthetic convective storm catalogue

    Storms generated under El Niño, Super El Niño, La Niña and neutral conditions.

  3. Riverine flood modelling

    Flood events derived from the simulated convective storms.

Portfolio analysis service

Run your portfolio through 15,000 El Niño years.

Don't have the in-house setup to use the hazard layers? Send us your exposure and we run it against the stochastic catalogue in catastrophe modelling software, returning the loss metrics your underwriting and capital teams need.

  1. Send your exposure

    Locations with insured values and, where available, construction and occupancy.

  2. We run the catalogue

    Your portfolio is analysed against the El Niño synthetic flood events in catastrophe modelling software.

  3. Receive your loss results

    Average annual loss (AAL), exceedance-probability curves (OEP / AEP) and losses by return period, with a method note.
