White paper: Building for the future

Innovation as a strategic tool in (re)insurance

Innovation is simply another word for change. It becomes meaningful to an organisation when there is strategic intent behind it. At Chaucer, we believe that success in innovation is inherently linked to collaboration, and this white paper is designed to share what we’ve learned so far in our innovation journey. It explores what innovation is, why it’s important and what success can look like. Specifically, it explores the role of innovation as a tool in the strategy arsenal and it outlines various models for how companies are implementing it, along with tips for practical adoption.

White paper: North American Wildfire Risk

A study on the impact of people and environment on severe wildfire risk

Wildfires, particularly North American wildfires, are a key risk for our industry. For reasons ranging from urban development patterns to climate change, the danger they pose is growing. While many wildfire catastrophe models exist, they are relatively immature to other peril models and are not widely used by either the insurance or reinsurance markets. Given the risk is growing and confidence in the modelling has not matured, partly due to current regulatory restrictions, we need to better understand trends in wildfires and what these mean from both an industry and a view of risk perspective.

Whitepaper: Oceanographic climate change

Offshore energy and shipping sectors forecast to come under greater than expected threat from climate change as extreme weather becomes more commonplace.

The ‘Oceanographic climate change: The impact of ocean-based climate change trends' report, warns that the offshore energy sector – particularly assets such as oil platforms and wind turbine installations – is on course for a material change in risk exposure from worsening extreme weather conditions including changes in storm patterns.
