Bonus Ep: Ag Insurance 101

Climate change will mean more frequent, extreme weather and more risk exposure for farmers around the world. This increased risk should be a driver for the business of agricultural insurers. But, it’s not easy to predict how climate change and digital-disruption might transform one of the world’s oldest industries.
Actually, we’ve come to realize it isn’t easy to understand how agricultural insurance works at all.
So, in the spirit of learning out loud, we’re releasing TWO episodes this week. This first one dives into the mysterious world of ag insurance with a 101-style conversation with Matt Coutts, Chief Investment Officer of Coutts Capita, and Tenacious Ventures General Partner Matthew Pryor.
We talk about:

  • How farmers think about risk and forms of insurance
  • What ag insurance products actually do, how they work, who is involved, and what the dynamics are between different players from brokers to master agents
  • Why ag insurance, as it is structured today, is a zero-sum game played out between insurers and farmers
  • What the different forces are that will shape the industry into the future
