While many people know Switzerland as a safe haven in times of crisis, Swiss Re's home country is nonetheless exposed to numerous natural perils like flooding that in recent years has intensified with a warming climate. So as part of Swiss Re's participation in Swiss {ai} Weeks, an initiative uniting stakeholders from across Swiss business, government and academia to shape the responsible development and application of AI, it made sense for us to develop a #hackathon challenge that called for using data and technology for solutions that could make Swiss society more resilient to extreme weather events. We were impressed by what emerged: one team turned to virtual reality to help visualise extreme weather scenarios; another group developed a dashboard to provide intuitive information about flood risk in different regions; still another produced an AI-driven tool capable of providing alerts about accelerating Alpine landslide risks as well as formulating evacuation plans to help guide authorities' disaster responses. What united these projects was a sense of urgency: in 48 hours, the teams deployed technology to harness sophisticated data sources, delivering user interfaces to test the viability of their ideas in bolstering Switzerland's NatCat #resilience. We at Swiss Re congratulate our hackathon teams for their innovative approaches to challenges not unlike those that our risk experts in 70 countries around the world work on every day. One thing is clear: every reinsurance and insurance problem has a data component. With much of this data unstructured and difficult for us humans to get our hands around, Swiss Re is increasingly using #GenAI and other sophisticated methods to turn it into valuable, actionable assets – for our own underwriters and claims handlers, but also to help our clients make better risk decisions and strengthen their businesses. The future of data-driven insurance and reinsurance is being transformed by AI, and #SwissRe is helping shape it. This is also one reason we see real value in collaborative, high-energy coding marathons like the Swiss {ai} Weeks hackathon: these events – and the talented young minds participating in them – inspire us and open our eyes to fresh ways of applying technology to address real-world challenges.

In 2024, Aon’s EMEA claims team reported a 26% increase in claim notifications compared to 2023. Historically, claim frequency has held around 20%, but this continued year-on-year increase may signal an upward trend. The rise may reflect broader coverage post-2021 and a maturing client base that’s increasingly leveraging W&I insurance for claims, not just deal facilitation. Notably, notifications from 2021 policies received in 2024 remained in line with historical patterns, suggesting this growth reflects sustained activity rather than a last-minute spike from expiring policies.
