- Inventory and manage client as well as industry data with aim to further develop market studies (motor insurance, inflation development, etc.) and develop our internal tools
- Analyse the costs and benefits of risk transferred under reinsurance agreements via pricing analysis and dynamic risk modelling (mainly using collective risk model, various distribution fitting techniques for frequencies and severities)
