## Overview

KatRisk is a catastrophe risk modeling company providing physics-based, high-resolution catastrophe intelligence to insurers, reinsurers, government agencies, and financial institutions. Founded in 2012, the company delivers advanced computational models covering multiple perils including floods, tropical cyclones, severe convective storms, wildfires, and earthquakes. KatRisk's technology processes catastrophe models 30 times faster than industry standards, incorporating 50,000-year probabilistic storm tracks and climate change-informed risk assessments.

The company's platform serves major insurance and reinsurance companies including Acrisure, Munich Re, Zurich, Aon, and Guy Carpenter. KatRisk bifurcated into two core business units in May 2026: KatRisk Intelligence (high-fidelity models and hazard data) and KatRisk Technology (operationalized platforms for underwriting and portfolio decisions). The company has expanded rapidly through acquisitions—Symfos (January 2026) and RED (April 2026)—strengthening its multi-peril modeling and portfolio intelligence capabilities.

In 2023, KatRisk received investment from TA Associates, a leading global private equity firm focused on financial and healthcare sectors, supporting strategic growth and innovation acceleration.
