In January 2023, Law No. 21,521 came into force, promoting financial competition and inclusion through innovation and technology in the provision of financial services, known as the Fintech Law. This law introduces the concept of parametric insurance and the simplification of the design of policies and settlement procedures. Moreover, the regulator has established a list of risks that can be insured using a parametric model, the variables that activate cover, and the minimum content of insurance policies. We expect this will appeal to the property sector for losses related to natural catastrophes, and, in particular earthquakes, given Chile's history.
