WHy Arbol?

Traditional insurance struggles to scale coverage for climate risks.

The Problem

A broad spectrum—from small farmers to large corporations and banks—is left vulnerable with traditional insurance.

This protection gap is marked by delays, disputes, instances of fraud, and a lack of specific climate risk products, compounded by insufficient industry infrastructure to tackle the escalating challenge of climate catastrophes disrupting global supply chains.

A single event can set off a chain reaction that ripples through our interconnected world.

In 2024, the world faced 398 natural disasters, causing $380 billion in losses and revealing a 69% global protection gap.

Picture this...

A farmer, hopeful for a bountiful harvest, is facing the brutal reality of drought.

A missed loan payment follows, impacting not just the farmer’s livelihood, but also the local community.
Now Zoom Out.

That local impact reverberates through the financial system, where banks that lent to countless farmers now face a systemic risk.

It’s not just one farm—it’s a network of loans, investments, and livelihoods that are all tied together.
See the domino effect?

Climate risk is more than unpredictable weather; it’s a domino effect that can disrupt industries, economies, and lives.

When businesses falter due to unexpected events, it sends shockwaves through supply chains, jobs, and ultimately, the global financial system. The story we’re telling here isn’t about isolated incidents. It’s about connections.
Our Solution is Parametric

Arbol’s role is to disrupt this chain of consequences by introducing parametric insurance.

By triggering swift payouts when predetermined conditions are met, we’re breaking the cycle of uncertainty, helping businesses recover faster, and fortifying the resilience of entire systems.

Through parametric insurance products, Arbol offers swift, objective, and scalable coverage, addressing specific climate risks with no room for disputes or delays.

This innovative model not only closes the global protection gap but also ensures that from the smallest farmers to large corporations, all have access to reliable protection against climate volatility.

Step 1

Define your location and risk.

Parametric insurance operates on a model that pays out based on the occurrence of predefined triggers, such as wind speed or rainfall level, rather than traditional claims processing.
