Inform your decision-making with tailored analytics

Lockton’s dedicated Analytics Insurance team provides bespoke analysis, market intelligence and insights to help you make informed decisions about risk retention and financing.

By sharing easy-to-interpret analysis, our in-house industry experts will help you evaluate and plan for the unique exposures you face, while providing you with an audit trail to present to key stakeholders.

We work with you to measure and understand your risks, using analytics to assess expected outcomes and scenarios, while evaluating new ways to finance your exposures. In short, our goal is to provide you the analysis you need to achieve the best possible solution.

What we bring to your business

Risk tolerance analysis

  • Using annual reports and other publicly available information, we will assess the impact of unbudgeted loss events on your key financial indicators

  • This enables you to understand your financial ability to take insurance risk

Risk appetite interviews

  • Through a series of interviews with key personnel, we will discuss your key risks and how you might finance them

  • This helps determine your financial willingness to take insurance risk. Coupled with your risk tolerance, this enables you to ensure your insurance is ideal for your business

Collateral estimates

  • Using claims data, risk exposures and claims development triangulations, we estimate the funds that should be set aside to pay for unsettled claims

  • This aids negotiations with insurers, allowing them to gauge the level of collateral required

Loss projections

  • Using your data and our own internal industry data, we project the aggregate losses that could occur for the forthcoming policy period

  • This gives insight into the potential quantum of your risks, enabling you to plan for ‘bad’ years and secure appropriate insurance for your risk appetite. It also provides estimates for the losses you will need to fund at a specific level of retention

Economic cost of risk analysis

  • Using our loss projections, we design the most financially efficient insurance structure that will:

    • Fit your risk appetite and tolerance

    • Use the most efficient blend of own and third party capital

  • This approach minimises your cost of risk and informs your decision-making regarding your insurance placement

Mazur ruling overturned: why it’s not quite business as usual

The Court of Appeal’s decision in Mazur has confirmed a long‑standing and well‑understood model of delegation under supervision in litigation, reassuring much of the profession that established practices remain lawful. At the same time, it highlights real risk where appropriate supervision and delegation arrangements are absent or inadequately evidenced, leaving open the possibility that an unauthorised person is in fact conducting litigation. A clearer, fact‑specific approach to supervision, delegation, and retained responsibility can help firms maintain established working practices while reducing regulatory and procedural exposure.The Court of Appeal’s decision in Mazur has confirmed a long‑standing and well‑understood model of delegation under supervision in litigation, reassuring much of the profession that established practices remain lawful.
