Company mission

To support any person or business to cover their losses when it comes to weather and the damages it can bring along with it.

Our take

Climate change is set to significantly disrupt humanity, with reports indicating that four of the top five severe risks in the next decade are environmental. Also, experts suggest there is a lack of preparedness for climate risks compared to other categories.

Arbol is a global climate risk coverage platform that offers parametric insurance solutions to businesses, helping them analyse and mitigate climate risk exposure. It operates a comprehensive ecosystem that includes a massive climate data infrastructure, AI-driven pricing and blockchain technology. This combination allows for scalable, transparent, and efficient coverage, making it a unique player in the industry.

Arbol's recent successes include the raising of significant Series B funding, and the launch of Lilypad Insurance to serve coastal regions. It has also transacted $250 million in gross written premium. Looking ahead, Arbol plans to further its reach in the agriculture and renewable energy sectors, aiming to provide robust climate risk management solutions to a broader range of clients.

Company values

  • Silos stay on the farm - We strongly believe in the power of collaboration and we’re convinced our full potential can only be released when we all work together in formal meetings or over happy hours
  • Ownership and impact - You have the ability to do the work you want. See something cool going on with another team? Tag along and learn. You can choose to make an impact where you want, when you're ready
  • We’re building for the long term - When we're building our solutions we strive to build the most flexible, efficient, and thoughtful ways possible. So sometimes we might have to build it a few times before getting it right and thats ok
  • Leave it better than you found it - We're the type of people that if you walk by trash on the floor you pick it up and dispose of it properly. No one will be here forever, let's leave our work better for the next person
  • We don’t have all the answers - Ask for help. If you’re stuck or frustrated, then asking for help is a sign of strength. The next day it could be you offering help. If people look like they’re overloaded, step up. Whether we fail or succeed, we do it together
  • Everybody gets to talk - The best solutions require diverse opinions and approaches. Which is why we believe in empowering all and no one voice over shadows everyone. We all deserve a seat at the table
