Making insurance markets work for the poor (2009): Thematic Focus notes (English, French, Portuguese and Spanish)

 

To support the development of microinsurance markets a project was launched under the auspices of the International association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS)-Microinsurance Network (MIN) Joint Working Group on Microinsurance (JWGMII) aimed at mapping the experience of five developing countries – Colombia, India, the Philippines, South Africa and Uganda – where microinsurance markets have evolved in varying degrees.

The objective was to assess how much regulation has affected the evolution of these markets and gain insights which can guide policy-makers, regulators and supervisors looking to support the development of microinsurance in their jurisdiction.

To disseminate the findings of this project, a number of focus notes have been written to highlight key themes that emerged from the research.

  • For more information on the overall project and its findings click here.
