Knowledge carrier for
the
insurance industryCooperation in the fields of knowledge and research supplement and nurture our competencesExamples: Global Earthquake Model (GEM), RMS, London School of Economics (LSE)The relevance of our research results extends beyond the realms of insurance:political sphere, authorities, land-use planning, emergency response, construction industry, etc.Munich Re sets the standard in the analysis and assessment of risksCreates added value for clients in the writing of complex risksMakes new risks insurable
Losses from geo risks are increasing worldwide
Munich Re has been investigating geoscientific phenomena,
the attendant risks and loss potentials since 1974
