Core Features

Location Risk Intelligence builds on Munich Re's long experience in modelling natural catastrophes and climate risks. The platform uses a modular approach, allowing organizations to select different data editions according to their analytical needs—from current natural hazards to future climate scenarios and financial impact assessments. Some of its principal capabilities include:

  • Asset and Portfolio Risk Assessment – Evaluates physical risks for individual properties, infrastructure assets, or entire portfolios worldwide using consistent global datasets.

  • Climate Change Scenario Analysis – Assesses future physical risks under multiple IPCC-aligned Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) scenarios with projections extending to 2100.

  • Natural Hazard Risk Scoring – Generates detailed hazard and risk scores covering perils such as floods, tropical cyclones, drought, wildfires, sea-level rise, extreme rainfall, and extreme temperatures.

  • Portfolio Mapping and Concentration Analysis – Visualizes geographic risk concentrations, compares portfolios, and identifies locations with elevated climate exposure using interactive maps and aggregation tools.

  • API and Enterprise Integration – Provides REST API access, single sign-on, data export capabilities, and support for integration into existing enterprise workflows and analytical systems.

  • Climate Risk Reporting Support – Helps organizations evaluate and document physical climate risks for regulatory and voluntary reporting, including SFDR-related use cases and broader climate disclosure requirements.

Closing Insights

Location Risk Intelligence forms part of Risk Management Partners, Munich Re's software and analytics business that makes the reinsurer's internal catastrophe modelling expertise available to external organizations through digital products. The platform draws on Munich Re's long-established NATHAN (Natural Hazards Assessment Network) and the company's extensive natural catastrophe database, extending this knowledge into cloud-based decision-support tools for insurers, financial institutions, infrastructure operators, and corporate risk managers.

Munich Re continues to expand the platform through partnerships. Recent examples include collaborations with CGI to support insurers' climate risk mitigation programmes and ICEYE, whose satellite-based flood intelligence has been integrated to enhance event monitoring and flood risk analysis. Pricing is available on request. The platform is offered in Business, Corporate, and Enterprise subscription tiers, with optional risk editions and REST API integration available depending on the selected plan.
