• Enabling the aggregation of results along different dimensions (geographical zone, segment, peril).
• Conducting in-depth analyses to identify the main risk drivers.

Developing accumulation and diversification indicators

• Computing standard risk measures (VaR, TVaR) at different return periods.
• Analyzing the contribution of segments and zones to the overall risk.
• Identifying risk concentration areas and the most severe scenarios.

Making this view of risk accessible to users

• Developing an interactive dashboard presenting the main results (maps, contributions, risk indicators).
