When global reinsurance firm Swiss Re announced its first-quarter results last week, the company also notified shareholders and markets that it intends to withdraw from its iptiQ business, a tech-focused initiative that effectively brought the giant balance-sheet of the reinsurer much closer to the risk.

CatX, a digital catastrophe and parametric risk exchange start-up, has launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool named Catamaran, which can create and analyse a reinsurance submission then provide rapid feedback on investor interest and pricing.

With the insurance-linked securities (ILS) and reinsurance marketplaces being document-heavy, UK-based legal and regulatory technology company Scribestar has an ambition to streamline document production and compliance for these sectors and is rolling out its platform globally.

Augment Risk, a growing risk capital and reinsurance solutions broker, said it aims to harness artificial intelligence technology alongside sophisticated models to underpin the insurance-linked securitization process to differentiate its new ILS broking and advisory offering.

Nascent Group, an insurance management and reinsurance transformer company launched last year by Andre Perez, has launched a new collateral monitoring feature to facilitate “smoother and more transparent ILS transactions” to the benefit of fund managers and investors in the space.
