AutoGen Casualty ILS: Multi-Agent Tail Risk Structuring System

Structuring casualty insurance-linked securities requires collaborative analysis of long-tail risk distributions and trigger conditions across counterparty agents. Build an AutoGen multi-agent conversational framework that models loss distributions and achieves accurate secondary market yield predictions within 5% error.

Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Build an AutoGen multi-agent system comprising Risk Modeler, Structurer, and Investor agents to design casualty ILS instruments.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates multi-agent conversation termination and output yield pricing error against ground truth actuary benchmarks.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

market_clearing_pass

Validates that agents reached consensus on bond structure.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

yield_prediction_error_pct

Percentage error between calculated yield and ground truth benchmark. • target: 0.04 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Set up an AutoGen multi-agent group chat environment.

  • Assign specialist roles (ActuaryAgent, StructuringAgent, RatingAgencyAgent).

  • Simulate negotiation of coupon yield based on long-tail casualty loss distributions.

  • Produce final bond terms with target yield prediction error under 5%.
