From Risk to Resilience: Marsh & McLennan Companies Cyber Handbook 2018: Perspectives on the Next Wave of Cyber: Cyber risk continues to grow as technology innovation increases and societal dependence on information technology expands. A new and important turning point has been reached in the struggle to manage this complex risk. In the war between cyber attackers and cyber defenders, we have reached what Winston Churchill might call “the end of the beginning.”
Guy Carpenter on Modeling: Two Views: “Managing Cat Model Change” provides Guy Carpenter’s best practices on model change frequency and management. “To Bend or Blend?” delivers insights on which modeling technique you should use when developing your own view of risk.
By the Numbers: Global Cyber Risk Perception Survey: Cyber risk is now at the forefront of the corporate risk agenda, but cyber risk management strategies are not keeping pace despite an increasingly complex threat environment and escalating potential financial impact. A new global survey of more than 1,300 executives, undertaken by Guy Carpenter sister organization Marsh in partnership with Microsoft, examines cyber risk concerns and management strategies by organizations of all sizes in a range of industries worldwide.

Incorporating new hazard and claims insights can improve the estimates derived from catastrophe models. By re-analyzing historical events using the latest scientific methods or refining claims with more granular geographical and line of business breakdowns, we can update models with the latest expertise and data. But model changes that yield large swings in loss estimates for frequent events must be carefully scrutinized to understand assumptions and processes in order to truly support ownership of risk.
