Housing associations
Gaining control over the future
Housing associations are facing a monumental challenge. National performance agreements regarding new development and sustainability upgrades place immense pressure on your organisation, teams, and budgets. In practice, we see that rapid sustainability initiatives introduce complex new (fire) hazards. Insurers frequently respond with blanket premium hikes and more restrictive terms, disrupting your long-term financial planning.
Predictability in challenging times
Barbon helps you reclaim control. We deliver this through a powerful, three-pronged framework: risk engineering, tailored insurance solutions, and predictive claims forecasting.
We don't believe in adding administrative burdens; we believe in delivering superior insight. By translating your specific portfolio into objective data, we map your true risk profile and projected claims trajectory. This provides you with a robust, evidence-based portfolio that guarantees tenant safety and delivers the empirical leverage required to negotiate significantly sharper insurance terms.
The result? A bespoke insurance solution built entirely on your factual data and actual risk profile. This ensures you maintain strict control over your premiums, your assets, and the safety of your residents.

Our approach
The Risk Monitor
With the Risk Monitor, we replace market assumptions with hard data. You regain total control over your real estate portfolio while securing the long-term insurability of your assets.
Individual property analysis
The monitor scans every building within your portfolio for its unique characteristics. In collaboration with the risk engineers from JB Risicobeheer, we translate these findings into targeted mitigation strategies for sustainability upgrades. This enables you to make data-driven decisions that actively safeguard both your residents and your property.
Empirical leverage for insurers
Detailed data gives you an undeniable advantage in the insurance market. We present your risk profile based on your actual, real-time situation rather than generic market averages. This approach consistently results in bespoke coverage and a premium that reflects your true risk profile.
Boardroom accountability
Our risk analytics provide clear foresight into future operational scenarios. This delivers the empirical evidence required to demonstrate to regulators and auditors that the board maintains effective governance over property safety and resident welfare.
Comprehensive digital and physical resilience
While the Risk Monitor secures your physical assets, our Cyber Assessment provides complete visibility into your data security. Under the strict requirements of the NIS2 Directive, this insight is essential to insulate directors from personal liability.
