Iceye inks deal to expand market access to natural catastrophe risk intelligence

Satellite data expert Iceye has secured a new deal with Munich Re-owned Risk Management Partners (RMP) to expand access to its natural catastrophe propositions.

In this partnership, Iceye’s flood solutions will be integrated into RMP’s Location Risk Intelligence Platform, which enables companies to assess and manage risks associated with natural hazards and climate change.

The integration also strengthens the platform’s real-time flood risk analysis and reporting capabilities before, during and after events.

The offering will be available from January 2026 via the events feature of Location Risk Intelligence.

Anke Sielker, head of the (re)insurance practice at Iceye, said: “At Iceye, innovation is at the heart of what we do.

“Integrating our flood intelligence into Location Risk Intelligence, Munich Re’s powerful analytics platform, represents a major step forward in how leading-edge data and technology can be combined to enable insurers and businesses to better understand and manage the rapidly evolving flood risk landscape.”

Iceye will be the first commercial provider to supply precise event data to the platform.

Additional Iceye products, including hurricane rapid impact and wildfire insights, will be made available for resale by Munich Re to its customers globally.

Christof Reinert, head of RMP at Munich Re, said: “Natural catastrophes are becoming more frequent and severe.

”Businesses need scalable solutions to manage these risks before, during and after disaster events strike. By integrating Iceye into the platform, we provide even more comprehensive insights into natural risk disaster exposure. This gives our customers a decisive advantage, enabling active risk management to safeguard investments and operations, while also strengthening resilience.”
