International Conference on Inclusive Insurance (ICII)
About the conference
The inclusive insurance sector has experienced persistent growth in client outreach and premium volumes over the past ten years. New technologies are boosting market coverage. Nonetheless, many people living at the bottom of the pyramid are still without cover or alternative risk management options. Climate change will make the situation worse. The G7 has therefore decided to insure 400 million people against climate risks by 2020. With the global middle class expected to grow to nearly five billion within two decades, we are looking at billions of people who are without a formal safety net from insurance and hence at risk of falling (back) into poverty.
The mission of the ICII is to provide a non-profit platform for all stakeholders to present and discuss issues, policies and state-of-the-art solutions for efficient, sustainable and inclusive insurance products;
- promote the development and proliferation of good-value insurance for emerging economies;
- raise awareness of the demand for insurance in the low-income segment and its potential;
- provide opportunities for insurance and development experts to progressively develop shared visions and create new partnerships.
