When it happens, know within hours

When a storm, quake or flood is under way, the first question is what you have in its path. Real-time exposure visibility means the answer is on a map, not in a spreadsheet someone has to build.

  • Post-event loss estimation
  • Scenarios before the event

Draw the event over the book, read the answer.

Footprint laid over the book

One event, from the scenario to the loop that follows.

The same event walked through the real Report and Result screens, then the loop Ebix Europe describes for after the event.

Run it in advance

Scenarios run before the event tell you where you are most exposed. Choose the class, the peril and the coverages, draw the event, give it a damage factor set.

Why a live view matters: the picture has to keep up.

Legacy tools work on static schedules and roll-ups, so by the time insurers have pieced together a picture, the event has evolved.

Days mattered

The Iberian blackout

Claims surged simultaneously across business interruption, property, travel and personal lines, and the picture was fragmented, incomplete or locked in silos.

Hours mattered

The M&S, Co-Op and JLR cyber attacks

They rippled across suppliers, logistics partners and millions of customers; where exposures started and ended was hard to trace.

The response starts long before the storm.

Before the event

Make the data trustworthy first

  • Integrate third-party data sources such as satellite imagery, climate data and social media data for a more complete understanding of risk.
  • Validate those sources and check for inconsistencies or errors; normalise them so they are compatible with the platform's data model; monitor them for changes.
  • Ebix describes a platform that takes in data about events as they happen, during a hurricane for example, as the direction it is working towards.

After the event

Feed what you learn back in

  • Assess exposure, evaluate losses, model potential losses, update risk models, and share information with reinsurers and other stakeholders.
  • By combining claims data with exposure data, insurers can estimate losses more accurately and make more informed decisions about claims settlement.
  • By analysing portfolio data they can identify the policies and regions most at risk and prioritise their response.

Modules behind it, and the next job.

Each solution is the platform's modules applied to one job. The next one picks up where this one ends.
