The report uses Chartis’ RiskTech Quadrant® methodology to explain the structure of the market and which solutions are best for buyers, depending on their implementation strategies. The RiskTech Quadrant considers the vendors’ product, technology, and organizational capabilities, with emphasis on their market potential and the completeness of their offerings.

Across the “Market Potential” and “Completeness of Offering” metrics, Moody’s Analytics was one of six vendors recognized as “Category Leaders” – firms that combine “deep domain knowledge in risk topics with deep technology assets and capabilities.”

The report also compared all the vendors based on a set of eight core capabilities. Moody’s Analytics fared best, achieving a top score in five of the eight capabilities: risk aggregation, data management, economic scenario generator, hedge analytics, and asset and liability management.

Sidhartha Dash, Research Director at Chartis Research, said the strong results for Moody’s Analytics reflected the company’s broad set of offerings in this area, as well as the depth of their data and analytics in each category (e.g., scenario generation, risk, modeling, etc.). Additionally, he noted the integration achieved between the data Moody’s Analytics provides and their analytics. On the theme of innovating insurance solutions, Dash said: “Moody’s Analytics is at the forefront of insurance risk management technology. Their broad offerings and expertise in marrying data, analytics, and applications can play an important role in helping insurers accelerate the execution of their risk management objectives.”
