About the Company

Parametrix

Provides parametric insurance for cloud outages

Parametrix provides parametric insurance for business interruptions caused by downtime of third-party digital services. It uses a proprietary monitoring system that tracks the performance of cloud providers and other IT services, and when a predefined downtime trigger is reached, it pays a fixed amount automatically—typically within 15 days—without deductibles. The company distinguishes itself with rapid, trigger-based payouts and a global network that manages third-party IT risk, plus notable deals like the Cumulus Re catastrophe bond for cloud outages developed with Hannover Re. Its goal is to close the coverage gap for cloud and digital service interruptions and scale its parametric model to address growing digital dependency.
