NEW YORK, Dec. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Stoch Analytics Limited, a newly formed private company headquartered in Ireland, acquired the proprietary Atlas software suite from Oliver Wyman, a global management consulting firm and a business of Marsh McLennan [NYSE: MMC].

"Atlas is one of the fastest modeling platforms available today, which allows the insurers to optimize their financial and actuarial resources while reducing cloud spend."
