As a result, rating agencies, such as S&P, Moody’s and AM Best, are recommending insurers implement an enterprise risk approach to ensure an excellent rating standard. SAS, the leader in business analytics, plans to help insurers address these risk needs with the latest release of SAS Insurance Intelligence Architecture. Central to the architecture is an updated insurance data model to support risk analysis and risk-based capital calculations.
