This webinar is the second in a series of joint catastrophe modelling webinars between the Insurance Institute of London (IIL) and AIR Worldwide (a Verisk business), aimed at improving members understanding of developments in extreme event modelling and risk evaluation in today’s insurance world.

In this webinar, Robin Wilkinson, will present a casualty catastrophe modelling framework and discuss the role of casualty cat models in the (re)insurance marketplace.

Dissecting the key data inputs/outputs and their interpretation is crucial for informed decision-making in the world of insurance in 2020.
