ALM Models
Understand ALM models
Overview
Moody's Risk Modeler Aggregate Loss Models (ALM) use aggregate portfolio data and support portfolio management, treaty reinsurance underwriting, and other risk management processes when detailed exposure data is not available. ALM exposure consists of total insured limits by geographic resolutions (geoIDs) and lines of business (LOBs).
ALM analyzes an aggregate portfolio by matching the geographic resolution and the line of business of the exposure data to an ALM profile.
For more information about ALM profiles for specific regions and perils, see the Support Center.
ALM profiles
An ALM profile is a pre-compiled database of loss ratio estimates and associated variances for a specific peril for one line of business at a certain geographic resolution. The ALM profile incorporates a set of assumptions regarding policy structures, geographic distributions, construction inventories, and insurance coverage type.
ALM profiles calculate the frequency, severity, and associated losses of catastrophic events for an aggregate portfolio. Each ALM profile is a pre-compiled database of loss ratio estimates and their associated variances for a specific peril for one line of business at a certain geographic resolution. Each profile incorporates a set of assumptions regarding policy structures, geographic distributions, construction inventories, and insurance coverage type. ALM profiles are pre-seeded. You cannot create new profiles or edit existing profiles.
The Intelligent Risk Platform supports ALM profiles that leverage DLM and HD models.
DLM models
ALM model profiles are available for DLM models for version 18.0, 18.1, 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25.
