A few months into 2025, CAT risk trends continue to evolve and are increasingly shaped by climate change, demographics, inflationary pressures, and complexities from cyber threats and the current geopolitical landscape. The year-to-date CAT losses have  exceeded USD $100 billion, with Hurricane Milton and non-peak perils such as floods, wildfires and thunderstorms driving these extreme events. This increasing frequency, along with record-breaking temperatures, underscores the importance of refining and adjusting our models and approaches to risk assessment. 

 

This year, with leading industry experts, we’ll be diving deeper into the questions our community faces: Are our models keeping pace with the rapid escalation of climate-driven events? How can we incorporate new data to better manage exposures in an increasingly uncertain world? And what strategies are emerging to tackle the mounting non-natural CAT risks? 

 

Explore innovative approaches and cutting-edge industry solutions at the 12th Annual CAT Risk Management & Modelling Summit. Over the two days, our experts will dive deep into the market impacts of 2024’s losses, examine key extreme events including the Atlantic Hurricane season, the Japanese Earthquake, European floods, and severe convective storms (SCS). As we share insights, we’ll build our collective understanding and prepare for the evolving CAT landscape. 

  

We are expanding our invitation to brokers and underwriters who use cat modelling expertise to craft commercial solutions for risk transfer.  We believe dialogues among all professionals engaged in exposure management will be extremely valuable. 

​

We look forward to seeing you there.

Sincerely, 

Summit Advisory Committee
