Build and manage a profitable Portfolio

Parametric insurance on Yokahu's digital platform is the easist way to build a profitable portfolio. Automated underwriting allows a far greater volume of smaller deals over a far greater range of exposure and frees underwriters up to focus on pricing more complex risks. Our algorithms work with you to de-risk your portfolio, improving profitability.


On our fully digital platform, risk carriers can selectively insure from a whole range of perils, and then fine-tune appetite based on geography, attachment points, premium sizes, exposure limits, rate concentration and more. Carriers can also automatically co-insure with other carriers in order to reduce exposure.


In addition, Yokahu's automated claims process takes the hard work out of exposure management and claims handling.


Automated underwriting

For simple risks, Yokahu's suite of on-platform fully automated pricing algorithms take care of antomatically pricing a full range of perils

Granular controls and limits

Set delegation controls based on geography, attachment points, premium sizes, exposure limits, rate concentration and much more

Co-insure with similarly rated capacity

Stack risks, tier capacity with different margin targets or co-insure alongside other carriers to collaborate and/or compete for different risks

Build profitable portfolios

Improve profitability through intelligent risk selection, using on-platform tools to capture a portfolio of widely diversified and uncorrelated risks

Real-time exposure management

Customisable dashboards allow exposure management teams to anticpate losses and model different loss events

Automated claims processing

Automatically calculate, review and approve claims payouts. Push payouts directly on to international payment rails

Just-in-time loss fund management

Capital tied up in loss reserves can be better put to work; real-time exposure management and event forecasting means that loss funds only need to be topped up 'just in time' for claims payouts to be processed, and not before.
