There’s been a lot of excitement around our latest announcement, but if you missed it — Safehub has partnered with Liberty Mutual Reinsurance and the University of California in a groundbreaking initiative to protect campuses with our sensor-based technology. Through our advanced seismic sensors, we’re helping safeguard their buildings across all 10 campuses, providing real-time data to trigger their earthquake parametric policy and manage earthquake risk. UC is the first organization in the U.S. to adopt this sensor-triggered earthquake parametric coverage, paving the way for innovative risk management solutions. Liberty Mutual Re acted as the insurer, with Munich Re providing additional reinsurance capacity . Alliant Insurance Services brokered the deal, with Howden also involved in the placement.
