What is Parametric Insurance?

Hail

Parametric insurance is a type of insurance policy that pays out a pre-agreed amount when specific, predefined conditions are met. Unlike traditional insurance, which pays out based on actual losses suffered by the insured party, parametric insurance uses objective data to determine when a payout is due. For example, a parametric insurance policy for a hurricane might pay out if wind speeds in a particular area exceed a certain threshold
