Today’s challenging environment allows for innovations in risk sharing alternatives for our customers. Milliman consultants provide:
Clients who choose to retain risk believe that in the long run, retaining a portion of the risk is more cost-effective than transferring it through the purchase of insurance or reinsurance. Using sophisticated tools and analytical skills, we can help you identify your optimal retention level, evaluating such factors as your organisation’s appetite for risk, insurance market factors, and regulatory constraints.
Regulators and financial counterparties require substantive quantitative analysis to evaluate a financial institution’s available capital during stressed economic conditions. Our models provide independent analysis incorporating deterministic and stochastic loss rate results. GSE mortgage insurer eligibility requirements are currently being drafted.
