Tasks include building/updating technical price models to inform pricing and profitability decisions, providing strategic insights and recommendations to the business, understanding and responding to emerging trends in risk differentiation, and assessing the overall health of insurance portfolios against financial targets.

Book Pricing – this involves using technical pricing models, customer elasticity models, competitive position, segment strategies and system constraints to deliver prices to the market. These are the prices that our customers and partners see when we deliver price quotes.
