Hi there,
Weather derivatives are financial instruments the returns of which are dependent on weather. Typically weather derivatives are used to hedge investments against weather hazards. Catastrophe bonds - which pay out generous coupons but default on principal repayment if weather hazards occur during bond terms - are one example of a weather derivative.
