Analysis of exposures, claims, coverage, and costs.

Virtus brings policy and exposure information, insurance costs, and claims history together to compare program structures, evaluate retained risk, and identify recurring loss patterns.

What we examine

A closer look at your insurance program.

See how your exposures are changing

We organize information from policies, applications, property schedules, and other source documents into a consistent view. Comparing that information across periods helps identify additions, disposals, changes in reported values, and questions that deserve a closer look.

See how we use AI and technology
  • Property values and portfolio changes
  • Coverage limits and retained exposures
  • Missing or inconsistent information to resolve

Understand the structure behind the premium

We examine limits, deductibles, and coverage layers alongside their costs. For layered programs, that includes attachment points and pricing by layer. The goal is to understand how the pieces fit and what a change in structure would mean for your coverage and retained risk.

Put claims history into context

We bring loss information from different carriers into a consistent format and review claim counts, paid amounts, reserves, and reported totals. That view helps identify recurring loss patterns and questions that can inform risk control, renewal preparation, and retention decisions.

  • Claim frequency and severity trends
  • Open claims and reserve movements
  • Recurring loss drivers across locations or operations

Evaluate the tradeoffs in retaining risk

We use your exposure and loss information to evaluate deductible and retention options. We explain the assumptions behind the analysis and how different loss scenarios could affect the amount your business retains, alongside the potential change in insurance cost.

Understand the evidence behind the comparison

Where benchmarking is useful, we explain the comparison group, the source and age of the data, and its relevance to your business. Estimates and benchmarks inform the discussion; they are considered alongside your own exposures, claims, and operating priorities. If an actuarial opinion is needed, we help identify the appropriate specialist support.

Putting the information to work

Two views of an insurance program.

Illustrative data

Frequency and severity tell different stories.

Water damage
Claims: 18
Average incurred loss: $40k
Wind / hail
Claims: 6
Average incurred loss: $120k
Fire
Claims: 2
Average incurred loss: $300k

Fictional one-year property losses at a common valuation date. Average incurred loss = paid amounts plus outstanding reserves, divided by claim count. Each column uses its own scale.

Water damage occurs most often. Fire has the highest average loss. Both deserve attention for different reasons.

Illustrative structure

Where one layer ends, the next begins.

$10m–$20m$10m excess of $10m
$5m–$10m$5m excess of $5m
$0–$5m$5m primary layer

Simplified liability tower, shown from the ground up. Labels show attachment points and limits; bands are not to scale. Retentions, exclusions, and policy terms require separate review. This is not a recommended limit.

The decision ahead

Recommendations supported by the analysis

Our findings may support reviewing limits, restructuring coverage layers, reconsidering retained risk, or addressing a recurring loss driver. Where the current approach fits, we explain the evidence supporting it.

Illustrative example · Based on the sample above

What we see

Water damage accounts for 18 of 26 claims in the sample year.

Why it matters

Repeated incidents may point to a recurring loss driver worth investigating.

What we recommend

Review causes and locations with risk control before selecting prevention priorities or reconsidering deductibles.
