Rising risk and losses for SRCC-related events
SRCC events are emerging as the top concern in the political violence insurance market. Relying on historical event data and country-level aggregates of risk might not provide all the answers you need.
Discover the first SRCC catastrophe model to quantify risk
For the first time, access numerical estimates of potential losses from SRCC events and business interruption in the US to enable more informed decisions on insurance pricing, capital allocation, risk management, and mitigation.
Confidently price SRCC risk
The SRCC probabilistic model delivers a dollar loss output, allowing for direct input into pricing and capital modeling —and more informed decisions about (re)insurance.
Improve your SRCC underwriting strategy
Uncover areas of highest predicted risk to improve your underwriting strategy, selecting appropriate risks vs. premium and identifying areas for growth.
Plan for the plausible
Assess tail risk more accurately through a catalog of stochastic events featuring scenarios that are inherently plausible, but far more severe than any actual historical occurrences.
Regulatory stress testing
Stress test extreme disaster scenarios, using our model to help reveal potential vulnerabilities and fulfill your risk management and regulatory requirements—especially given recent regulatory focus.
Features and capabilities
Commercial and municipal property in the US
For US-located assets, specifically estimate commercial and municipal property losses and business interruption from SRCC-related damage (fire, looting and vandalism), down to the ZIP code level.
Loss roll-ups
Roll up SRCC modeled losses with natural peril modeled losses for a truly comprehensive, probabilistic enterprise view of risk.
Transparent methodology
Use our model to predict the severity of events by evaluating social and economic trends, political factors, and historical protest patterns.
500,000-year stochastic catalog
Reduce uncertainty in the variability of losses by tapping into an exhaustive catalog.
A complete view of SRCC risk
Combine with our Global SRCC Predictive Scores and qualitative services to create a complete view of SRCC risk in the US.

About Catastrophe Modeling
For rare but severe events, historical loss information is often unreliable in assessing future loss potential. That’s where catastrophe modeling comes in.
