Lab activity

Primary focus product area whilst in the Accelerator: Parametric 

During the programme, Skyline explored potential applications of parametric insurance for renewable offshore wind, energy, and marine risks. Its particular focus was on creating coverage for the risk of wind and wave heights causing delays and increasing operational costs for offshore construction projects.  

Skyline also developed a parametric ‘Cost of Violence’ insurance product for AEGIS London and broker Acrisure for US SME clients. The product covers previously uninsurable market in the US and the ‘non-physical damage’ losses incurred following a violent event in or around clients’ premises.

"The programme itself was great. But the real benefits of it is what comes afterwards and being part of the community. One of the reasons AEGIS London got in touch with Skyline was because of our involvement in the Lloyd’s Lab. I’d tell any InsurTech considering applying to do so."
