Seção: Artigos Título: Collective gains / Annette HoutekamerAutor: Houtekamer, Annette Notas: Sumario: More than two billion people worldwide are unable to obtain insurance, which contributes to financial hardship and permanent poverty. Large commercial insurers do not off er suitable products, and often do not want to do business with this group. Microinsurance can fill the gap, but those who design solutions need to understand the challenges people face, such as the impact of natural disasters and climate change, or healthcare issues. For example, small-scale farmers often lack information about the availability of seeds that are suitable for dry areas, or do not receive early hurricane or flood warnings. This causes them to make the wrong decisions.Registros relacionados: En: The Actuary : the magazine of the Institute & Faculty of Actuaries. - London : Redactive Publishing, 2019-. - 01/02/2021 Número 1 - febrero 2021 , p. 32-33Materia / lugar / evento: Mercado de seguros Microseguros Desastres naturales Cambio climático Outras classificações: 219 Direitos: In Copyright (InC) Ver detalhe do número
