This program aims to clarify how granular market data impacts the understanding of risk concentration and market cycles for insurers. By integrating Moody's modeling with Lloyd's specific exposure data, firms can better calibrate their underwriting strategy and portfolio monitoring.
The initiative spans a 16-week delivery period across 3 distinct workstreams. It evaluates multiple classes including General Liability, Medical Malpractice, Directors & Officers, Professional Indemnity, and Trade Credit.
The players
Lloyd's
An international insurance and reinsurance market that provides underwriting capital and platform infrastructure for diverse risk classes.

The details
The program merges proprietary Lloyd's market data with Moody's analytical infrastructure to stress-test portfolio performance.
