In his new role, Malcolm will be responsible for advancing our catastrophe modeling portfolio, developing new approaches to building climate-conditioned flood event sets and supporting the strategic Fathom X Reask partnership launched last year to bring together risk data on the combined impact of floods and tropical cyclones.  

“Malcolm’s wealth of experience and user knowledge of risk modeling make him a valuable addition to our team. We’re eager to see our catastrophe modeling capabilities evolve and expand with Malcolm onboard.”
