Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Role of bundling in promoting sustainability of health insurance : evidence from Pakistan

Notes: Sumario: This paper extends current literature on the impact of health microinsurance in emerging markets. Using a difference-in-differences approach, we explore the casual impact on client retention of bundling health insurance with microfinance in the context of a large-scale microfinance institution in Pakistan. We find that the programme has a significant and positive impact on client retention. Further, we find that this impact is sensitive to the age composition of the client base, with an average rate of retention higher among younger than older clients.Related records: En: Geneva papers on risk and insurance : issues and practice. - Geneva : The Geneva Association, 1976- = ISSN 1018-5895. - 01/07/2019 Volumen 44 Número 3 - julio 2019 , p. 503-526Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro de asistencia sanitaria Microfinanzas Microcréditos Mercados emergentes Pakistán Otros autores: Ahmed, Hamna
