To meet these demands, insurers are turning to partners that can offer not only technological excellence but also trusted, high-quality data. That\u2019s where the partnership between MBI and Quarticle comes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Area Boundaries<\/strong><\/a>: Postal codes, CRESTA zones, and micro-geographies (e.g., IRIS zones in France) help underwriters assign risks precisely, avoid misclassification, and ensure regulatory alignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Socio-Demographics<\/strong><\/a>: Household income, size, lifestyle patterns, and consumer behavior enable insurers to model demand, assess affordability, and understand what triggers product interest, particularly after major life events or catastrophes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n CONIAS Risk Data<\/strong><\/a>: Real-time and historical political risk intelligence help insurers track evolving risks across infrastructure and supply chains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With Quarticle and MBI, insurers can rely on a single source of geospatial truth, replacing fragmented processes with integrated, real-time decision-making:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMBI\u2019s global geodata is the fuel that powers our geo-intelligence engine for insurers. Their comprehensive, high-quality datasets enable us to deliver the precision, compliance, and speed our clients require \u2013 whether for risk assessment, portfolio management, or real-time event analysis. With MBI as our trusted data partner, we can focus on innovation, knowing our solutions are built on reliable, up-to-date information.\u201d \u2013 Andrew Frei, COO, Quarticle<\/p>\n\n\n\n By using MBI\u2019s boundaries data and socio-demographics, Quarticle helps underwriters and portfolio managers visualize exposure, monitor accumulation, and act decisively in fast-changing environments such as wildfire outbreaks, earthquakes, or political unrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andrew Frei, COO of Quarticle, describes the partnership: \u201cTogether, we\u2019re setting new standards for data-driven decision-making in the insurance industry.\u201d Following a recent earthquake in Central Italy<\/strong><\/a>, Quarticle identified over 4,800 affected buildings within the impacted zone. Using Quarticle\u2019s tools, insurers were able to calculate \u20ac2.6B in gross and \u20ac1.7B in net exposure on the fly. What once took days or weeks was accomplished in minutes, enabling immediate reporting to top management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MBI and Quarticle are redefining geospatial risk intelligence for insurers.
