Why you need a risk decision platform

One workspace, one truth, better decisions.

Data about risk is everywhere - predictive modelling, historic, insurance policies and submission, terms and wordings, projections and actuarial analyses. The challenge isn’t a lack of information; it’s turning that flood of inputs into confident decisions before the window to act closes. Catamaran was built for this exact moment.


Catamaran aggregates all internal and external risk data into one clear view, empowering you to quickly decide whether to retain, write, or transfer risk.

What Catamaran, our risk decision platform does:

Aggregates every source

Internal files, risk-specific details, and third-party or proprietary models flow into one workspace. Goodbye patchwork spreadsheets.


Lets smart software sift the noise

Agent-style AI flags the real drivers, stress-tests scenarios, and answers natural-language questions. It’s like talking to a colleague who already absorbed every document in the stack.


Keeps everyone in sync

Brokers, insurers, investors, and regulators work off the same live “risk object,” commenting and comparing in real time with a built-in audit trail.


Connects straight to action

When the numbers look right, quote, bind, or hedge without leaving the platform. Everything syncs back to the systems you already run.

Who is it for?

Underwriters

Manage extensive cover limits, premium income, trigger management, and risk assessment with clarity.


New and Existing ILS Investors

Efficiently evaluate portfolios, expected returns, risk-adjusted performance, and real-time opportunities.


Treaty Reinsurers

Oversee treaty capacities, loss ratios, combined ratios, and strategic portfolio decisions seamlessly.


Risk Managers

Monitor insured values, coverage gaps, geographic risks, and premium spend across complex portfolios effortlessly.


Brokers

Streamline submission sharing, real-time market interaction, and placement efficiency with transparent, collaborative tools.


Already in use by Tier-1 proprietary trading desks for ILW pricing, global brokers sharing live submissions, and leading MGAs integrating structured data APIs.
