Newark, California: October 22, 2025: Specialist Lloyd’s (re)insurance group Apollo has licensed a suite of six Moody’s high-definition (HD) catastrophe models to enhance its understanding of risk across multiple global perils.
The models, delivered via the cloud-native Moody's Intelligent Risk Platform™, will support Apollo’s data-driven underwriting and portfolio management strategies with advanced analytics and high-resolution hazard data.
Apollo’s adoption of HD models includes Europe flood and U.S. flood, North America wildfire, Europe severe convective storm and windstorm models, and New Zealand earthquake.
These models help provide a detailed representation of losses, enabling Apollo to improve technical pricing considerations, refine capital allocation, reduce model uncertainty, and enhance informed risk selection decisions in an increasingly complex risk landscape.
Vinay Mistry, Chief Risk Officer, Apollo, commented: “Moody’s HD catastrophe models and Intelligent Risk Platform are integral to our approach in building our comprehensive proprietary ‘View of Risk.’ These advanced models will continue to add to Apollo's Modeling Framework, enabling seamless integration into underwriting and portfolio management strategies, enabling us to deliver our strategic plan. This partnership underscores our commitment to continue to lead in risk and underwriting management innovation by combining cutting-edge technology with robust analytics.”
Daniel Flemington, Managing Director – Insurance Solutions, Moody’s, added:
“We’re proud to support Apollo’s strategy toward embedding greater risk innovation and resilience. The adoption of an extensive high-definition (HD) modeling suite using the applications on the Intelligent Risk Platform places thought-leaders like Apollo in an advantageous position to get deeper insights into risk, adapt quickly to emerging threats, all using technology that responds and grows with business needs.”
