The insurance industry is under immense pressure to modernize how it assesses and prices risk in an era where natural disasters are growing in frequency and severity. Traditional actuarial models, while historically effective, often fall short in capturing the complexity and unpredictability of today’s catastrophe scenarios. To meet these challenges, insurers are increasingly turning to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to develop more precise, data-driven catastrophe models. These advanced technologies are contributing to improvements risk prediction and underwriting accuracy and supporting more agile and resilient pricing strategies that align with the realities of a rapidly changing world.
