Munich Re Service GmbH

Location Risk Intelligence

Munich Re's Location Risk Intelligence is a modular SaaS platform and API for measuring and managing natural-hazard and climate-change risk worldwide, drawing on the reinsurer's proprietary global hazard models and decades of loss data. Users score single locations or whole portfolios across perils, visualise current and forward-looking risk under climate scenarios, and quantify financial implications along the value chain via configurable modules; the tool is catalogued in the UNEP FI dashboard. Distinctive for pairing modular, integrable delivery with hazard and loss data accumulated in Munich Re's reinsurance business — a resource smaller specialists lack.

Vendor methodology

Transparency Score

Beta

Public transparency, not model quality iThe Transparency Score (0–3) estimates public methodological transparency: the degree to which the vendor's analytical approach to modeling climate and nature risk can be assessed from publicly available sources. It is explicitly not a measure of vendor quality or accuracy.

Methodology-relevant: vendor websites or external resources explain methodological details.

Methodology-relevant: a public 'climate risk modelling explained' page sets out how the two core outputs are constructed — Climate Expected Loss (coordinate-specific hazard curve x vulnerability) versus hazard-zone Risk Scores — and the NATHAN score structure; exact loss rates and thresholds remain confidential.
