Parametric Insurance simply offers a pre-agreed amount of cover based on the probability of a pre-defined event. That sounds a bit like typical insurance jargon but in simpler terms, the specifics of the insured event parameters are identified and the reimbursement values are determined before the cover starts. Compensation is provided when an event occurs rather than just after a loss. Parametric insurance provides cover for areas that aren’t covered or are often excluded by indemnity style policies.
The insured doesn’t have to provide proof or observe a lengthy claims process and the Insurer doesn’t need to spend resource and money on assessing claims – the data does all the hard work for everyone.
Parametric Insurance is one of the major global trends in insurance innovation. The movement towards utilising big data and mobile technology to provide new, innovative solutions is revolutionising the once traditional sector.
Customers are demanding more from their products and services. Lack of certainty for customers/policy holders seeking advice and status updates on their claim entitlements and payouts are real challenges facing the insurance sector, which were particularly acute during the Covid-19 period.
Insurers need to keep up with the demand for fast and intuitive solutions to customer problems and as parametric combines big data, mobile tech and AI, it’s becoming increasingly accessible for Insurers to provide innovative and progressive customer experiences.
As well as benefiting the customer, this also provides Insurers with integrated digital platforms that enable faster, cheaper and more scalable solutions and communication methods.
