Introduction to Index Insurance

Index insurance is an innovative approach to insurance provision that pays out benefits based on a pre-determined index or loss of assets and investments resulting from weather and catastrophic events, without requiring the traditional services of insurance claims assessors. It also allows for the claims settlement process to be quicker and more objective.

This course seeks to provide an overview of agriculture and index insurance as well as related issues such as data, pricing and livestock index insurance.
