This “companion blog” provides links to published materials highlighted during the MGAA webinar in which Gamma LI – alongside partners at Sust Global and First Derivative – shine a light on climate change and the regulatory requirements to report on direct and indirect carbon emissions. A potentially onerous task for MGAs and insurers alike that we can help streamline.
ESG, GHG, the drive to Net-Zero… the focus on climate change and the regulatory requirements to report on direct and indirect carbon emissions for insurance businesses of all sizes is an onerous task. Gamma LI – alongside partners at Sust Global and First Derivative – participated in an MGAA webinar to shine a light on the topic and provide some guidance. This blog covers some of the key points raised.
Location intelligence firm Gamma LI has been changing the landscape of business. Here, CEO Feargal O’Neill maps out his journey in business. An interview by John Kennedy, ThinkBusiness.ie.
Looking for better ways of assessing property risk? Finding that implementing data and software solutions is overwhelming? Then perhaps this brief review is the antidote you are seeking. At the very least, it might prompt you to get in touch and have a conversation. We always like to help. We don’t believe in making things difficult.
Sustainability and ESG is yet another topic that is overwhelming many organisations within the insurance sector. Knowing where to start and what good looks like in terms of driving towards net-zero from an investment and underwritten business perspective is hard. There was some great advice at the Sustainable Insurance Summit at the end of January 2022. Hopefully, this summary is helpful.
Gamma is targeting €2 million in business growth across the island of Ireland with its new service, AddressLink. The company is also expanding its team, with additional hires in the data science and software development teams, to support the rollout of this solution.
Climate change is already affecting our daily lives, but its effects upon the weather will become far more marked in the years to come. Property insurance premiums are affected by the impact that storms and wind speeds have on buildings and the built environment. However, the windstorm evidence and projections for the impact of climate change are not well developed. In this article, together with MetSwift, we explore the observed trend in strong wind events since the 1970s, using a 50 mph wind gust threshold.
Climate-related risk. Regulatory compliance. Cloud-based solutions. Data… data… data. It’s a lot to take on-board. Even more to understand how it can truly benefit your business. Some of the detail to get you started or help you on your journey is here. Helping you to address today for the unwritten tomorrow… might be simple conversation and the odd presentation away.
Our knowledge of climate change is evolving all the time. In light of the COP26 conference in Glasgow, Gamma LI would like to bring our clients and partners up to date on climate change, what it means for the Insurance sector and what data is available now to help understand what the potential impact might be.

Gamma LI… helping clients to see the data wood, from the data trees…
Are you facing a data-oriented challenge that you need to overcome before you can access the right data, at the right time, in the right way? Data and analytics projects can cause organisations more pain than they resolve. Yet sometimes all it takes is the involvement of a trusted partner who can help you see the wood from the trees...
Data… the root of – and solution to – problems
Looking to understand the main pain points of businesses who use technology and data to make informed decisions, Jason Day has recently shared a poll on LinkedIn asking: “When you are producing insight used for decision making within your business, which of the following always adds time into your process…” The results show that inadequate data can be the root of many problems.
The science of where… the geography behind what next
Richard Cantwell, Principal Consultant at Gamma, recently spoke to the Business Post about the science of where and the value of geographical data for industries like retail and insurance. Over the last 16 months, there has been a huge shift in the daily lives of Irish people, with changes to how they behave, as well as where they move to and from. In fact, many continue to work or study (and spend) where they live.
