From flood data to flood decisions: making intelligence actionable | InsTech

About this webinar Flood risk is becoming harder to underwrite and harder to manage. For many portfolios, the weakest link isn’t the intent to manage flood risk, it's the quality and resolution of the information feeding decisions. Outdated or low-resolution flood data can lead to mispriced policies, inconsistent underwriting decisions and difficult conversations with brokers, boards and clients.

When floods occur, claim severity can be high, slowing down settlement and increasing friction and leakage. For corporates and captives, the stakes are equally clear: flood events can trigger major business continuity disruption, with difficult operational decisions required under time pressure.

In this webinar hosted in collaboration with Previsico, we explored what “advanced flood intelligence” actually means, what it enables and how it can be operationalised including a real-life story of how flood forecasting and on-the-ground monitoring can support earlier decisions and reduce impact.

We also aimed to include perspectives from both insurance (Liberty Specialty Markets) and operations risk (Whitbread) to unpack how insurer and corporate stakeholders can work together to reduce flood impact on insured assets and operations.

Our panel shared their insights into: What “advanced flood intelligence” means in practice and how it differs from traditional flood views Where low-resolution or outdated inputs create blind spots (and how that shows up in underwriting and operational decisions) The practical benefits that advanced insights can deliver for insurers, brokers and corporate/captive risk teams How flood

intelligence plays out in a real-world scenario from earlier signals to better action planning How insurers and risk partners can integrate flood insights into workflows (risk selection, engagement, and continuity planning)
