Expertise
Our expertise includes several aspects of Weather-Related and Seismic Risk Assessment: from vulnerability and risk analysis to assessment of exposure; from hazard models to the development of solutions for parametric insurance programmes. A common feature of these projects is the research of innovative solutions which are at the same effective from an economic point of view and for their practical implementation. In addition to these capabilities, RED counts on staff members with a strong international experience on risk assessment for earthquakes and weather-related perils, considering a wide variety of exposures and in any area of the World.
Risk assessment
RED provides services related to the development of risk models for earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters, at local, national and international scale, as well as to the computation of loss metrics. We also create customised tools and platforms for rapid loss estimation and tailored loss databases.

Services for insurers
We develop loss models for parametric insurance programmes on floods, droughts, earthquakes and other natural disasters. RED holds valuable expertise in developing real-time or near real-time web-based platforms for disaster risk financing mechanisms or for insurance programmes. RED also offers risk management services.

Exposure datasets
We compile exposure datasets for every type of disaster, such as for example floods, droughts and earthquakes. We are expert in both industrial and residential exposure, and we can take advantage of multiple sources of data, including satellite imagery and remote-sensing measurements.
