The partnership aims to empower insurers with enhanced capabilities to assess and manage natural catastrophe risks.

London, UK; 10 August 2023: Cytora, the leading digital risk processing platform, has formed a partnership with Reask, a provider of advanced natural catastrophe risk analytics, to integrate Reask's natural catastrophe risk analytics APIs into the Cytora platform. This partnership aims to empower insurers with enhanced capabilities to assess and manage natural catastrophe risks.

 

Reask's natural catastrophe risk analytics APIs offer comprehensive insights focussed on global tropical cyclones risk. By integrating Reask's robust risk analytics APIs into the Cytora platform, insurers can access detailed risk assessments and hazard data, enabling them to make more informed underwriting decisions and improve their overall risk management processes.

 

In a world marked by escalating natural catastrophe events, accurate and timely risk analytics are critical for insurers to effectively assess, manage, and mitigate potential losses. The integration of Reask's natural catastrophe risk analytics APIs into the Cytora platform equips insurers with valuable insights, helping them enhance risk assessment accuracy and optimize underwriting strategies.

 

This partnership allows insurers to leverage advanced analytics and machine learning to streamline their underwriting processes, strengthen their risk management practices, and make data-driven decisions in the face of natural catastrophes.

 

Juan de Castro, COO of Cytora: "We are thrilled to partner with Reask to provide our customers with advanced natural catastrophe risk analytics.
