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

News and Insights

As new data centres continue to come online, insurance buyers are benefiting from favourable market conditions. The highly engineered nature of modern facilities has sharpened the industry’s focus on risk engineering, creating an attractive proposition for insurers and prompting competitive rating structures. This has supported an influx of new capacity across the UK, US, and Asia, with notable lines deployed by FM Global.

In the months ahead, attention will turn to structuring programmes for data centres of increasing scale and value. Projects that once involved modest builds have evolved into multi-billion-dollar campuses, bringing heightened aggregation concerns as highvalue assets cluster within single regions. Despite the market’s maturing, many insurers may not have previously underwritten assets of this magnitude.Data Centre Market Update: Q1 2026
