Lloyd’s launches “first-of-its-kind” parametric business interruption insurance policy for SMEs
Parametrix Insurance offers simple and reliable coverage by removing the traditional indemnity trigger that most insurance policies today use. Instead, the new solution uses a parametric trigger, meaning that the policy automatically pays out if a customer’s critical IT services – such as cloud, e-commerce or payment systems – are disrupted. This significantly reduces the time insurers spend assessing a loss or adjusting a claim.
The new product is led by Tokio Marine Kiln (TMK) and supported by other members of Lloyd’s Product Innovation Facility including RenaissanceRe. It is the first off-the-shelf parametric IT downtime policy tailored towards SMEs.
AstraZeneca gets partial immunity in low-cost EU vaccine deal
Drugmakers have called on EU regulators to set up a Europe-wide compensation scheme, while patients’ organizations are calling for an EU-wide fund financed by pharmaceutical firms that would compensate for unexpected side-effects.
The EU legal regime is among the least favorable to drugmakers on compensation claims, although plaintiffs have rarely managed to win as the law requires them to prove the link between an illness and a vaccine that may have caused it.
The United States has granted immunity from liability for COVID-19 vaccines that receive regulatory approval. Meanwhile, Russia has said it would shoulder some of the legal liability should anything go wrong with the vaccine developed by Moscow’s Gamaleya Institute.

World Bank seeks board approval for $12 billion coronavirus vaccine financing plan
Malpass said the World Bank plan aimed to put poor and middle-income countries, where the virus is spreading most rapidly, on the same footing as richer countries by ensuring they have financing to secure supplies and a system for distribution, which will encourage drugmakers to meet their demand.
Without early doses that can bring outbreaks under control, many of these countries risk economic collapse that will push hundreds of millions of people back into poverty.
