London, 3 March 2025: Volt Underwriting, the MGA that supports clients active in the energy transition sector, and Quotech, the underwriter-led developer of truly useful, properly integrated insurance technology solutions, have incorporated Swiss Re’s CatNet® location intelligence tool into Quotech’s Risque underwriting workbench and Quex exposure management platform.

CatNet® is a global natural hazard atlas that provides web-based natural-hazard exposure analysis and mapping for any location in the world.

“This marks another step change for accessing CatNet via the API at the point of underwriting, bringing efficiency and accumulation management to the fingertips of Volt and its partners,” said Ruta Mikiskaite, Head of P&C Solutions UK & Ireland at Swiss Re Reinsurance Solutions.

“CatNet is entrenched and returning results,” said Volt Chief Operating Officer Kevin Cleary. “Quotech has integrated the service into our underwriting and exposure management platforms so that we gain a seamless, visual understanding of the natural hazard exposures of any risk we assess and underwriter.”

Quotech founder and CEO Guillaume Bonnissent said: “We design all Quotech platforms with flexibility in mind, including the ability to incorporate third-party tools which add value for clients. We in effect added CatNet as a plug-in to the systems we deployed for Volt, allowing their underwriting team to access the tool without exiting their underwriting or exposure management platform.”
