Juniper Re Strengthens Catastrophe Analytics Platform with CAPE Analytics Collaboration
TAMPA, Fla. – July 18, 2024 – Juniper Re, LLC (“Juniper Re”), the dynamic reinsurance broking arm and indirect subsidiary of The Baldwin Group, the go-to-market brand name for The Baldwin Insurance Group, Inc. (formerly BRP Group, Inc.) (“Baldwin”) (NASDAQ: BWIN), and CAPE Analytics, Inc. (“CAPE”), a leading provider of AI-driven property intelligence, are pleased to announce a strategic collaboration to deliver key portfolio-improving property risk insights to Juniper Re clients, as well as a differentiated view to the reinsurance market.
This collaboration adds another strategic component to Juniper Re’s sophisticated, tightly woven catastrophe analytics platform uniquely designed to provide clients with distinct insights, enhanced positioning in the reinsurance marketplace, and improved overall portfolio and company performance by leveraging exceptional, specialized technology capabilities.
With the addition of CAPE to Juniper Re’s dynamic catastrophe analytics platform, the team introduces the ability to provide comprehensive property data insights through the analysis of high-resolution imagery and other data sources using computer vision and machine learning. This data includes detailed information on roof condition, building attributes, and property vulnerability to potential hazards such as hail, wind, and wildfire.
Juniper Re aims to improve data accuracy and risk management strategies for insurers, MGAs, and other providers of insurance products by integrating CAPE’s insights into its forward-thinking catastrophe modeling platform. By doing so, Juniper Re can enable clients to better prepare for, understand, and predict potential property losses, ultimately providing clients with more efficient, tailored, and effective solutions.
Juniper Re’s Head of Catastrophe Analytics, Adam Miron, added, “Our focus in developing our dynamic, interconnected platform has been identifying exceptional technology, determining how to maximize capabilities, and developing mutually advantageous relationships, all tailored to provide unique, impactful insights. Through our collaboration with CAPE, we can augment our client’s data to refine our analysis and ultimately distinguish them in the reinsurance marketplace. Furthermore, CAPE’s roof condition, wildfire, and hail intelligence enables us to show profitability impacts by integrating best-in-class hazard and vulnerability data. At the end of the day, integrating this intelligence into our catastrophe analytics platform allows us to differentiate our clients and ourselves in the market.”
“We’re thrilled to be working with Juniper Re to provide new and more accurate property risk insights that can help improve carrier risk management and profitability,” said Busy Cummings, CAPE’s Chief Revenue Officer.
“We look forward to seeing Juniper Re apply CAPE’s market leading property intelligence solution for reinsurance placements in a way that adds tremendous value to the broader property insurance industry.”
