Risk transfer solutions for corporations
As the nature of the risk it faces becomes increasingly complex, the agricultural sector needs to constantly adapt to a rapidly changing environment. Increasing global population, limited arable land, trade liberalisation, pressure to increase growth, as well as volatile production related to climate change and commodity markets are just some of the many challenges currently affecting the sector. Swiss Re’s Agriculture team offers innovative, tailor-made risk transfer solutions to help mitigate those risks.
Leveraging Swiss Re's capital market expertise, the agricultural team provides a broad range of products, including crop shortfall insurance, weather-based index covers and structured price hedges. These products help to effectively manage losses in years with low production.
