Case Study: Deloitte achieves accurate, efficient cell-captive risk and capital assessment with Palisade @RISK

Deloitte Uses @RISK to Advise Clients on Risk-Heavy Insurance Partnerships

Deloitte, a global professional services firm, uses Palisade’s @RISK to help insurers evaluate risk-heavy cell captive insurance partnerships. Their challenge is to assess capital needs and solvency exposure under rare catastrophic scenarios (a “one‑in‑200‑year” view), requiring complex Monte Carlo stochastic models, correlation structures and tail (99.5th percentile) loss estimates across large spreadsheets.

Palisade’s @RISK lets Deloitte run Monte Carlo simulations (e.g., 100,000 iterations) inside Excel using features like the Compound function, built‑in distributions, correlation modeling and distribution fitting, eliminating the need for tens of thousands of rows. As a result Palisade enables Deloitte to quantify 99.5th‑percentile capital requirements, accelerate analysis, produce clear summaries for decision‑makers and advise clients on mitigation actions to reduce insolvency risk.
