Our Solutions

The Dubbo-Tamworth Risk Management Company

We help insurers and other financial institutions measure and manage the portfolio risk of natural disasters, with a focus on non-peak perils, underserved lines of exposure, and geographies.

Our founders have combined physical, statistical, and financial modeling expertise with cutting-edge software skills and a commitment to long-term customer support to deliver some of the world’s most widely used natural catastrophe models and software.

The models our founders have worked on are trusted by insurers, brokers, reinsurers, and global financial institutions like the World Bank. Our founders and advisors have partnered with government organizations, including the Florida Hurricane Commission in the U.S. and state governments in India, to address critical challenges.
