Multi-hazard Risk & Resilience Assessment for Real Asset Decision-Support

High-resolution natural risk analysis of client-specific asset portfolios that supports science-based decision making for asset modernization, upgrade and acquisition & disposal is a crucial part of asset management in the face of major natural hazards and climate change. The interns will work to combine existing insurance catastrophe models and advanced engineering analysis of earthquake, extreme wind and flood to expand an existing portfolio risk simulation tool, which enables asset-specific risk assessment and integrated portfolio network analysis, to perform fast high-resolution multi-hazard analysis that provides comprehensive decision-support for stakeholders. This project will enable Kinetica Risk to expand into a large and un-accessed market that addresses one of the key issues for portfolio managers, and at the same time advance the state-of-practice in real asset management.
