Insuring Value and Managing Risk: Risk management, of which insurance is a subset, is intended to protect individuals and companies from
uncertain loss or catastrophe. More broadly, risk management in financial markets has spawned myriad derivative products and other financial instruments meant to hedge against unpredictable or uncontrollable events. At last count the notional value of all outstanding over-the-counter derivatives is
$600 trillion. Blockchain supports decentralized models for insurance, making the use of derivatives for risk management far more transparent. Using reputational systems based on a person’s social and economic capital, their actions, and other reputational attributes, insurers will have a much clearer picture of the actuarial risk and can make more informed decisions.
