Design Phase

Habitat Banks Insurance

Design of parametric insurance solutions to protect investments in habitat banks. The insurance product protects against key environmental risks, such as human-wildlife conflict, rainfall anomalies, and wildfires, offering confidence to investors and project developers. By reducing uncertainty and securing biodiversity assets, the insurance strengthens habitat banks, supports ecosystem resilience, and promotes greater public-private investment in nature-based solutions.
