Use Case

Insurers

Price crypto and custody coverage with counterparty risk ratings on 70+ exchanges and custodians.

Helping Insurers Underwrite Crypto and Custody Risk

Questionnaires alone aren't enough. Pre-bind risk intelligence gives underwriters a clearer picture of an applicant's financial health before they provide a quote. Agio's models assess default probability quantitatively, so insurers can set premiums that properly reflect the actual risk of the insured entity.

Independent Counterparty Risk Ratings for Crypto Insurance

Self-attestation is not proper due-diligence. Agio offers statistical ratings that analyze nearly 20 explanatory variables to generate 12-month default probabilities, helping insurers understand the risk of the companies being underwritten.  We believe Agio’s models are robust, with a statistically significant AuC of 0.77. This gives an underwriting file the quantitative backing that reinsurers, regulators, and claims adjusters expect.

Post-Bind Monitoring for Insured Crypto Counterparties

Crypto credit risk can deteriorate quickly. An insured counterparty may move from stable to distressed within days. Agio continuously monitors the financial health of exchanges and custodians across an insurer’s book of business and delivers automated alerts when risk profiles change. This can allow underwriters to adjust limits, request additional information, or prepare for renewal discussions before material losses materialize.

The Problem

Traditional risk models don’t work in a market as dynamic, fragmented, and opaque as digital assets.

We continuously monitor on- and off-chain risk factors correlated with default risk.
