12.6 Million US Properties at High Risk From Hail Damage, Exposing Insurers to $189.5 Billion in Potential Losses “Catastrophe models have helped insurers understand where storms may strike and how losses might add up at a portfolio level,” said Kumar Dhuvur, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at ZestyAI. “But they weren’t built to assess risk at the individual property level, and they often miss the specific conditions that drive hail damage. By analyzing the interaction between structure-specific features and local storm patterns, we can distinguish risk between neighboring properties—enabling smarter underwriting, more precise pricing, and better protection for policyholders.” https://lnkd.in/evK6Dx5W Ava Paydar Attila Toth Andrew Merski #fintech #finance #banking #paytech #payments #fintechnews #paymentsnews
