Riwe secures funding for climate insurance

Nigerian insurtech Riwe has secured funding for climate insurance, with a focus on helping farmers manage climate-related risk.

What happened

The company is working on insurance products connected to climate resilience and agricultural risk.

Why it matters

Farmers are often exposed to weather shocks, crop losses, and unpredictable climate patterns. Insurance can help reduce the financial damage when those shocks hit.

This is also a reminder that climate fintech is not only a European or US story.

The bigger picture

Some of the most important climate startups may be built around adaptation: helping people, businesses, and communities survive a less predictable world.
