As Korean Re continues to grow both domestically and internationally, this agreement enhances Korean Re’s risk analysis capabilities to help increase the support it can provide to clients with global risk portfolios.

“Korean Re started operations in 1963, and 2023 marks the sixtieth anniversary of the business. After six successful decades, we begin a new chapter in our corporate history to challenge ourselves and change the world by constantly seeking internal innovation in a manner that increases our positive impact on the world around us.”
Dr. Chun Baek, the head of Catastrophe Analytics at Korean Re, commented: “It is expected that providing wider insights into risk analysis and decision making against recent changes in natural catastrophe will be available by working with Moody's RMS models.”
Andrew Hare, Managing Director, Moody’s RMS said: “Korea is an exciting and important country market for us, and we are delighted to be working with Korean Re as they continue to grow and enhance the services and support that they can offer for all their clients.
