Emerging Markets

We identify customer problems that aren’t being broadly met within the insurance industry, evaluate their potential and develop coverages and solutions to address them.

We’re uniquely positioned to meet the needs of emerging markets

Broad perspective

With our insurance and financial expertise, we’re able to see the potential in new technology, solutions and situations that are difficult for our competitors to insure.

Long-term focus

We infuse innovation with longevity by strategically investing in sustainable solutions and emerging opportunities that create lasting value.

Inventive solutions

Some risks are difficult to address because they lack long-term data. We work diligently, pulling from over 100 years of data to find solutions for those risks.

We address unmet needs in fast-evolving spaces

We’re exploring the future of protection by addressing unmet needs in fast-evolving spaces. From digital threats to climate change, we’re focused on building innovative solutions where traditional insurance falls short.

Climate resilience

From extreme weather events to long-term environmental shifts, our solutions are built to support sustainability and resilience in the face of uncertainty.

Parametric

Parametric insurance offers rapid, transparent payouts based on predefined triggers such as weather thresholds or seismic activity in place of traditional claims processes.

Embedded insurance

We aim to integrate insurance directly into the products and services customers already use, making protection more accessible and intuitive.

Wildfire parametric products

Nationwide has partnered with a leading program manager to test offering a parametric-based, stackable insurance solution designed to reduce paperwork, lengthy claims, payout processes and other use limitations.
