Leading Property/Casualty Insurer Selects Leader in Integrated Enterprise Risk Management to Assist with Informed Strategic Decisions

DFA Capital Management Inc. today announced that it has recently secured an agreement with Erie Insurance Group to provide ADVISE, its Integrated Enterprise Risk Management solution to Erie Insurance Group, of Erie, Pennsylvania.

Charles Longua, VP of Corporate Financial Planning and Analysis at Erie said, "We needed specialized capabilities including simulation of financial markets, stochastic analysis of our investment and underwriting risk, robust reporting tools that provide alternative investment and underwriting strategies, and analytics that include GAAP, SAP, tax and economic value perspectives.
