RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES DRIVEN BY DATA
ANALYZING YOU.
What are the risks your business facesânow and in the future? APERTUREÂź, our proprietary analytics tool, provides a holistic picture of your risks, focusing on your data to help you predict future trends. It can help you make informed decisions about your risk management strategy, leading to improved performance and lower costs.
EXPOSURE TRENDING
To align your risk management strategy with your corporate objectives, weâll perform a comprehensive risk analysis of your firm. This analysis helps us understand your risk profile and provides the basis for creating your risk mitigation strategy and determining the various risk financing alternatives available.
We start with a baseline measurement for your overall risk profile, then determine your historical cost of risk to use as a benchmark for future decisions. This metric can be shared across the organization to help impact your culture and broaden the awareness and understanding of your risk management strategy.
COST OF RISK ANALYSIS
Weâll take a detailed look into various factors that may be related to the frequency of losses and their severity. Itâs through these correlationsâ both historically and predictively modeledâthat weâll develop recommendations geared toward improving your loss performance.
DONâT HAVE A GOOD RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGY?
THATâS A BIG RISK.
6
Your business is constantly growing, adapting, and changingâand so should your risk management plan. MJ works closely with you to make sure your risk management strategy is aligned with your business goals, so youâre always getting better, growing stronger, and reaching your objectives.
LOSS TRENDING
Charting elements of your business profile is a key part of our process, and this includes the exposures your insurance program is built from. This helps us get an understanding of how your business has changed over timeâand that means weâll be equipped to analyze your cost of risk and align your insurance program with your goals as you grow and change.
7
RISK ANALYSIS
In conjunction with an operational risk analysis, weâll assess your total cost of risk, which can help you understand your insurance program costs, retained losses, and risk control costs. This will put you in a better position to understand how to control your spending.
RISK MITIGATION STRATEGY
After we understand your risk profile, weâll talk with you about how much risk youâre capable of taking and willing to accept. And weâll also know whether your current risk management program is right for achieving the goals of your company. The profile we create will allow us to do a deeper evaluation of your biggest risk factors, giving us actionable information we can use to help you thrive.
RISK AND REWARD. Part of our job involves developing a deep understanding of your business so we can form a clear picture of your corporate goals and approach to risk management. This is similar to a routine health screening for your organization, but focused on your business risks, so we can identify gaps in coverage and a clear plan to address them.
BENCHMARKING & FORECASTING
Forecasting is a means of level-setting: What happens if we do nothing and keep getting what weâre getting? What could happen if we commit to changing our behaviorâand subsequent risk cultureâto improve results? Seeing the possible future can help you make the right decisions.
Our risk assessments leave no stone unturned. This means taking a look at business continuity, business interruption, cyber threats, and other emerging risks. After weâve identified these risks, weâll create mitigation plans for potentially severe risks, conduct a risk culture assessment where weâll look at your organizationâs ability to manage risk, and perform a risk review for your industry.
After a thorough assessment and analysis, weâll develop a comprehensive plan to target prioritized areas of risk. This plan will include assigned accountabilities from the client, MJ, and carrier partners. The plan we create will include action items needed to reach your objectives.
RISK TOLERANCE ASSESSMENT
RISK ASSESSMENT
Benchmarking can be both internal and external: You can use it for internal goal setting, or you can review peer data and apply comparative analysis. We can help you do both.
