Cloudy with a chance of loss
Weather derivatives are an increasingly popular way for businesses to insure against bad weather and limit the effect on revenue. Despite impressive advances in technology, nobody can control the weather. We can predict the weather short-term, but cannot prevent it from happening. This frustrates many business owners for whom the weather plays a major role in determining revenue.

Weather risk: Mother Nature is a hot commodity
Around a quarter of the annual economic output of the US, 37% of Germany and 45% of China is sensitive to the weather (see report). The profitability and revenues of virtually every business, from agriculture to energy and entertainment to construction, business survival and prosperity pivots to a greater of less extent on the vagaries of temperature, rainfall and wind. As climate change results in increasingly varied and extreme weather we explore what options are open to businesses (large and small) to manage this important and rising risk.

When mother nature strikes
Day to day, season by season, weather changes can impact a company’s bottom line. And it need not be a calamity like Japan’s Fukushima disaster. A retailer selling coats is at risk if the winter turns out warmer than usual. An unusually cold winter can affect shopping centers if management contracted for, say, ten snow removals when 25 were needed.

Weather derivatives: Come rain or shine
WEARING lots of layers and a decent waterproof coat is one way to guard against changeable weather. Firms facing losses because of a big freeze or baking sun do not have that option. Insurance companies have long offered cover against flooding, hurricanes and other catastrophes. For less calamitous changes in the weather, derivatives are a better option.
