FIS has extended its established expertise in risk modelling and data management to the non-life industry with FIS Insurance Risk Suite - GI Edition.


Running risk models themselves is only one side of the operational challenge for general insurers. In addition, data preparation, assumptions and parameters, and data loading need to be well managed. Similarly, model results need to be collated into a suitable database, and transformed into easily consumed business intelligence reports and dashboards.

Insurance Risk Suite - GI Edition represents a complete end-to-end risk modelling solution to these problems, helping insurers meet regulatory requirements and reduce over-reliance on spreadsheet solutions.

In addition to providing the core reserving and capital modelling functionality, data management and business intelligence capabilities, as well as dedicated actuarial and technical services, help actuaries and risk officers improve insights into their business. Enhanced transparency and control increase process efficiency and reduce operational risk.

Quick to deploy, and designed with flexibility and ease of use as key considerations, Insurance Risk Suite - GI Edition helps non-life insurers produce key financial modelling reports, with the ability to handle economic scenario and catastrophe model output data from major external suppliers.

As it is based on the FIS Insurance Risk Suite software platform, Insurance Risk Suite - GI Edition offers a range of consolidation benefits for multi-line insurers that want the operational efficiency of an integrated modelling approach.

To help customers optimize their use of Insurance Risk Suite - GI Edition and to gain the maximum operational benefit, FIS provides comprehensive consulting and service packages.  More information on these services can be viewed here.
