Choose the right perspective
Match the person's seat to your question, since modeling for a primary insurer's portfolio differs from modeling treaty business at a reinsurer. Also decide whether you need someone who runs vendor models day to day or someone who has led a team and set modeling strategy.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you decide when to adjust a vendor catastrophe model's output instead of using it as delivered?
- 02How do you check the quality of exposure data before running it through a catastrophe model?
- 03How do catastrophe modeling results feed into pricing and underwriting decisions in your organization?
