I.I.I. Glossary

WEATHER DERIVATIVE- An insurance or securities product used as a hedge by energy-related businesses and others whose sales tend to fluctuate depending on the weather.

PENSIONS- Programs to provide employees with retirement income after they meet minimum age and service requirements. Life insurers hold some of these funds.
