Key Points Covered:

  • Growing Coverage Gaps: More consumers and business owners are finding traditional insurance coverage increasingly difficult to obtain, with significant gaps in protection
  • The Insurance Crisis: Properties in high-risk areas (coastal regions, hurricane zones) face three major challenges from traditional insurers: raising rates, reducing coverage limits, or completely withdrawing from certain markets
  • What is Parametric Insurance: A unique alternative that complements traditional property coverage by filling in the blanks where conventional policies fall short
  • How Parametric Coverage Works: Claims are triggered automatically when specific measurable events occur (storm proximity/intensity, hail size) rather than requiring damage assessment
  • Real-World Example: A municipality used parametric insurance to "top up" their traditional property policy, providing better coverage following hurricane damage
  • Key Advantages of Parametric Policies:
    • Event-triggered coverage based on measurable parameters, not damage assessment
    • Clearly defined payout amounts known in advance
    • Rapid claim settlement (confirmed within days, funds within weeks)
    • No need for insurance adjusters to assess damage
    • Highly flexible and customizable trigger mechanisms
  • Parametric Hail Insurance Case Study: Radar-based coverage for solar farms with tiered payouts based on hail size (2 inches = 0%, 2.5 inches = 10%, 3 inches = 75%)
  • Covered Industries: Real estate, automotive dealerships, agriculture, solar farms, and other high-risk sectors
  • Getting Started: Quote requirements include location data, loss history, and desired coverage limits - all customizable for specific business or property needs
  • Action Steps: Review existing policies to identify coverage gaps and explore parametric solutions for risk mitigation
