Insurance Consulting

In a recent survey of insurance executives, more than 50% of the respondents said they either used or intended to use market-consistent methodologies to measure economic capital. But which market-consistent methodologies?

There is a bewildering array of metrics available to measure financial performance. Towers Watson helps insurance companies navigate these challenges to identify and deploy the metrics and methodologies that are most appropriate for their risk and capital management needs. We work with major insurers around the world on issues that range from economic capital and regulatory change to the intricacies of hedging and other forms of asset-liability management. 

More broadly, Towers Watson's insurance consulting business helps clients improve business performance. We use our deep analytical skills to solve practical business problems, applying the latest techniques and software solutions to help you measure and manage risk and capital, grow revenue and create competitive advantage. Towers Watson is also a pioneer in the use of enterprise risk management to help insurers identify and avoid potential major losses, enhance risk-adjusted returns, and establish and meet strategic objectives.
