A leading underwriter in the digital asset space, Qubit offers Insurance Products by S&P A rated insurers. We strive to combine our expertise in both blockchain technology and insurance to provide customized insurance solutions for the Web3 ecosystem.

Contextualised underwriting

One of the key challenges faced by insurers while writing digital asset-related risks is the complexity of the risk. The lack of standardized industry best practices and the fast-changing technology make it difficult for insurers to apply a one-set-for-all risk assessment methodology, which often results in a long and complex underwriting process. To tackle this challenge, we have developed a comprehensive underwriting framework, comprised of technical and operational risk assessments, which enables us to contextualise our underwriting based on the unique business nature of each Web3 business.

Data-driven risk
assessment and pricing

One of the key challenges faced by To properly assess and price risks, we have built a comprehensive incident database to assist us in analysing past incidents in the crypto industry, including hacking events and operational mishaps, identifying loss factors, and quantifying the impacts on business operations. This enables us to identify common risk points and best practices so we encourage and reward “good” risks by offering differentiating premiums and coverages.
