9 Evolution of Major Ports 100 years ago Numerous key river ports Manual labor to un/load to noncontiguous warehouse areas Ship capacity: 600 x 60 beam London 100 years ago Today Major ports now on the sea coast Automated un/loading for vast container lots Ship size: 1300 x194 beam: 19,000 TEU Shanghai today Containerization as the main driver for evolution of major ports.

19 Hurricane Sandy s landfall at Port NY and New Jersey In 2012, 14-foot storm surge inundated containers, cars, open lots and other Cargo 16,000 cars were lost 7,500 loaded containers were flooded 100 miles of railcars were damaged Marine claims totaled USD 3 bn Source: IUMI

20 Tianjin Port Explosion On August 12, 2015, a fire broke out at a storage facility causing a first explosion and shortly after followed by a second explosion equaling to 21 tons of TNT. Eight more explosions occurred in the port on August 15, as fires from the original blast spread. Third largest port in the World Main harbor for the whole Beijing region Loss estimate continues to grow CIRC estimate: 70% property loss and 30% marine loss Cars (EUR 1.6bn) / Container Content 304 residential, commercial and industrial buildings damaged Large quantity of cargo containers 800 injuries 176 fatalities approx. new 7,000 cars affected total damage could reach US$ 3-5bn

32 Cargo Modelling Challenges Vulnerability CHALLENGE Vulnerability SOLUTION Vulnerability varies with type of cargo (Auto, ipad, Food, Fine Art ) Vulnerability depends on type of storage (Container, Warehouse, Open lot, tank ) Exposure Currently Cat Models: assume that Cargo & Specie exposure remains the same over time, but Exposure can move location frequently unknown Values change over time Different cat perils at different locations while exposure moves Develop cargo-type specific vulnerability curves Implement secondary modifiers to fine tune curves Give underwriters ability to account for specific knowledge Account for different storage facilities Exposure Develop Hi-Res Port exposure database Values by cargo type Values and cargo type by storage facility Location elevation and lat/long coordinates Perform detailed market share analyses of key ports Source: IUMI

33 Underwriting consideration for NatCat exposures in ports Understand the natural catastrophe risk of a port (EQ, Wind, Surge, Hail, Flood ) Quantify the risk of specific storage locations and facilities Low elevation (surge risk) Poor soil (liquefaction risk in EQ prone areas) Poor construction E.g. brick warehouse (EQ risk) E.g. light metal (wind risk) Riskiest facilities: a function of location, construction, elevation and other site specific characteristics Incorporate risk information into Port planning Avoid storing high value items in high risk locations (e.g. no autos in low elevation open storage lots) Prepare for approaching wind/surge event based on prevalent risk of Port and locations Monitor potential Port exposures to avoid a Tianjin Source: IUMI

34 Benefits of better Cargo catastrophe management Portfolio Management Holistic view of Cat risk including Marine (5%-15% of Property Cat) Include Marine Cat in economic capital modeling (Lloyds RDS, Solvency II) Improve decisions around reinsurance needs Improve exposure management (no more Tianjin surprises) Cargo Underwriting Incorporate/improve pricing of Cat component of Cargo Pricing models specific to cargo type will improve competitiveness and risk selection Better risk selection and pricing, leads to increased premiums and more profitable Cargo book 24.
