Aon has announced an expansion of its partnership with Moody’s Insurance Solutions aimed at addressing casualty accumulation risk and latency, while advancing product development within the casualty re/insurance sector.
Building on their existing work in casualty reinsurance, the expanded initiative will now include commercial risk. The collaboration is expected to deliver insights on climate-related casualty exposures, other emerging risk categories, and named-peril excess casualty products for commercial insurance buyers.
As factors such as social inflation and litigation finance continue to reshape the liability landscape, named-peril products are being positioned as a tool to support risk transfer, premium development, and casualty risk protection. Aon said that these solutions are intended to reduce uncertainty associated with exclusions, inadequate limits, and disputes over coverage terms.
The enhanced partnership leverages Moody’s casualty unit’s technology, which identifies and models over 300 emerging risk perils, alongside Aon’s global network and access to both traditional and alternative capital sources. According to the companies, this combination is designed to support more efficient capital allocation and portfolio management decisions for Aon clients.
Earlier this year, Aon and Moody’s formed a partnership aimed at enhancing credit risk management and insurance solutions through the integration of advanced analytics and data-driven tools.
The collaboration enables Aon’s Credit Solutions teams to refer clients to Moody’s, granting them access to Moody’s comprehensive credit data and analytics platforms. The partnership initially launched in Europe, with plans for global expansion.
Amanda Lyons (pictured above), global product leader for reinsurance solutions at Aon, said that traditional casualty clash solutions have had limitations in providing capital-efficient coverage.
“Our collaboration with Moody’s is now creating products that better reflect exposures and offer more attractive pricing for both commercial risk and reinsurance. This helps businesses make better decisions and supports reinsurance clients and original buyers in confidently pursuing growth strategies,” Lyons said.
