PCS
CatX integrates PCS indices and loss reports to facilitate index-based transactions across geographies and perils.
About the integration
PCS is one of the leading index and insured-loss compiling and reporting providers. Its services are widely used in reinsurance, industry loss warranties and catastrophe bond transactions.
PCS offers indices and loss reports for the United States, Canada, Turkey, Mexico, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, covering marine and energy, cyber, terror, and large onshore property programmes.
Investors
With PCS on CatX, investors can access index-based opportunities such as industry loss warranties.
- Reduce moral hazard. Industry loss thresholds reported by an independent party reduce the risk of adverse selection.
- Diversify risk exposure. Indices allow direct participation in an industry portfolio of a specific risk.
- Increase transparency. Insured losses are compiled and reported by an independent third party.
- Lower transaction costs. Simple structures and legal language keep issuance costs down.
Brokers and insurers
Select the PCS indices you want in the submission builder, set the attachment and limit, and obtain quotes from alternative capital providers.
- Improve rates on line. Investor appetite for simple, transparent structures means better-priced capacity.
- Increase speed to market. An index speeds up modelling, pricing and placement.
- Lower transaction costs. Simple structures and legal language keep issuance costs down.
