Overview

Ambiental Risk Analytics is a global specialist in environmental hazard intelligence, predictive analytics, and risk management, founded in 2002 and headquartered in Brighton, UK. In 2019, the company was acquired by Royal HaskoningDHV (now Haskoning) and is now fully integrated into the Twinn by Haskoning brand -- their unified platform for climate risk data and analytics.

The company solutions are built on more than 20 years of proprietary intellectual property developed through flood modelling and climate risk research. This foundation combines high-resolution geospatial data, advanced AI and machine learning, and deep domain expertise to deliver highly accurate property-level climate risk scores and hazard intelligence at global scale.

Twinn by Haskoning climate data products serve banks, insurance and reinsurance companies, investment firms, real estate and asset managers, utilities, governments, and critical infrastructure operators. The platform covers 19 natural hazard categories with worldwide geographic coverage, supporting stress testing, ESG reporting, regulatory compliance (TFCD, CSRD, UK PRA, Solvency II), and underwriting workflows. Twinn also operates a reseller partner network, enabling third parties to distribute climate intelligence data to their own clients.
