About parametrics
What is parametric protection?
Parametric protection refers to insurance products that pay out based on predefined parameters or indices, such as wind speed, earthquake magnitude or rainfall, rather than an assessment of actual losses. This allows for quicker payouts and more transparent processes. CatX specialises in structuring and facilitating parametric solutions, connecting protection buyers with institutional investors.
How do I know if parametric protection is right for me?
Parametric protection suits organisations looking for rapid, predictable payouts after specific, measurable events. We offer analysis of historic events and modelling to help you understand how parametrics can protect you.
Why is CatX focused on parametric opportunities?
Parametric opportunities combine transparency, speed and efficiency in risk transfer. Our platform connects institutional investors with these products, helping them diversify with investments that have clear, data-driven triggers. This aligns with our mission to streamline and digitise risk transfer.
Who provides the protection capital?
Institutional investors on the CatX platform. They are attracted to the predictable, transparent nature of parametric insurance, which fits well with their risk-return profiles. CatX facilitates these connections so that the capital backing your protection is robust and reliable.
Why is better pricing available for parametric opportunities?
Simple, data-driven payout structures reduce administrative costs and speed up settlement. CatX also brings together a competitive marketplace of institutional investors, so pricing reflects investor appetite and market conditions.
