World’s $2 trillion dollar extreme weather costs in past 10 years hit US the hardest. Axios recently published extreme weather damage estimates from the Oxera report for the International Chamber of Commerce for 2014-2023. Costs roughly equate to those of the 2008 global financial crisis and ICC secretary-general John W.H. Denton AO said "the economic impact of climate change" needs a "response of similar speed and decisiveness," per CNN. Researchers found in the last two full years of the report alone, global economic damages reached $451 billion - a 19% rise compared to the previous eight years of the decade. The world needs more solutions that help minimize the economic and community impact caused by these extreme weather events – we are glad Demex’s reinsurance product for severe convective storm losses is able to provide some assistance. https://lnkd.in/ebtF7RAD #parametric #reinsurance

About us
Severe thunderstorms are causing the biggest losses for insurers today and, historically, when a standout threat emerges the insurance industry responds by carving that peril out of standard policies so that it can be modeled, priced, reinsured, marketed, and addressed separately (like cat bonds). Demex is under the radar working on this precise product for thunderstorms. For the first time this year, during reinsurance renewal season, Demex will be selling a fix into the US market: Two of the top three global reinsurance brokers are selling Demex’s storm product to their insurer customers this year – it’s like a security patch for insurers overwhelmed by these losses. Major investors with weather desks are backing (providing capacity for) the product.
