Policy Seminar on Access to Insurance for Regulators and Supervisors
The Philippines, Manila, 9 November 2010
Lessons and case studies: how policy and regulatory challenges can be addressed to stimulate insurance market development
The development of microinsurance is a central element not only for the promotion of inclusive financial systems but also for equitable mitigation of risks for the excluded.
On November 9th, 2010 as part of the 6th Annual Munich Re Foundation - Microinsurance Network (MIN) Conference, the Access to Insurance Initiative (the Initiative) hosted a seminar for senior insurance sector policymakers, regulators and supervisors in Manila. It was attended by 55 representatives from 20 countries, as well as a number of members of the IAIS-MIN Joint Working Group.
The seminar focused on two key issues facing policymakers as they move forward with actions to improve access to insurance markets in their efforts to combat poverty: formalizing the informal and facilitating outreach and innovation by formal players.
