As the firm expanded its use cases, it became a for-profit company, renamed Verisk, and went public in 2009. Verisk's single segment (insurance) provides underwriting solutions, including forms, rules, loss costs, and catastrophe modeling. For claims, Verisk's solutions include property repair estimates and antifraud tools. About 83% of Verisk's revenue is US-based.
