Jane Toothill & Matt Reid: JBA Risk Management: US flood - lessons learnt from the UK (136)


Listen Later

Flood is the most pervasive hazard in the United States, but despite the huge scale of the risk there are major challenges around the provision of adequate flood cover based on accurate, real-time data.


JBA Risk Management has spent the past decade developing flood models covering 99% of the world’s landmass and has leveraged that experience to provide new flood hazard maps and real-time modelling for US insurers.

Matthew finds out more on Podcast 136 from Jane Toothill, Managing Director, JBA Risk Management Ltd, and Matt Reid, Managing Director, JBA Risk Management Inc.

Talking points include:

  • Integrating flood data into decision-making processes
  • Applying global insights and knowledge to US extreme weather events
  • Real-time probabilistic modelling through JBA’s FLY technology
  • Catastrophe modelling for climate change scenarios
  • The state of the US NFIP and the emergence of a private US flood insurance market
