I think you're right, insurance and banks are both looking at a similar problem. In our approach, which is agri-specific, we work with banks to include requirements for climate smart agriculture into loan agreements. Farmers must do x, y and z if they want a loan. From an insurance perspective, this is the equivalent of requiring drivers to wear a seatbelt. We use a remote-sensing system to verify that farmers are in compliance with the system, and if they are we pass a score back to the bank for inclusion in their credit scoring algorithm. Compliant farmers have an improved risk profile and should be able to access credit on improved terms to reflect the improved risk.
