HurLoss
HurLoss is ARA's state-of-the-art hurricane catastrophe model designed for property insurers, reinsurers, brokers, and ILS managers to effectively manage risk in hurricane-prone regions. Since 1998, HurLoss has been the foundation for structural design in hurricane-prone states and has been utilized for federal emergency management and mitigation planning nationwide since 2003. The model offers a unified event set covering the entire North Atlantic basin, including the U.S., Caribbean, Bermuda, and parts of Canada, Mexico, and Central America. HurLoss is distinguished by its physics-based hurricane hazard modeling and engineering load and resistance modeling, starting with fundamental principles and validated through claims data. It incorporates future climate conditioning, allowing users to assess risks based on current and projected climatological data, including factors like sea surface temperature and wind shear.

Temblor
Temblor, Inc. is an innovative catastrophe modeling company specializing in seismic hazard and risk assessment. Temblor’s mission is to raise awareness of seismic risk. We serve the insurance, reinsurance, and insurance-linked security communities, as well as mortgage lenders. Our models build on recently published and independently tested scientific analyses to provide an independent, unbiased, and transparent assessment of risk. Our products include dynamic hazard and loss forecasts after large earthquakes, the first globally consistent insurance loss model, stochastic event sets, and the highest-resolution global site amplification model available today. Additionally, we calculate a building-level Temblor Earthquake Score, which incorporates all factors impacting loss into a single number for risk pricing and selection.
