Members making a difference
Summary
This publication brings together several short case studies on how members of the International Cooperative and Mutual Insurance Federation (ICMIF) are successfully extending the outreach of insurance to the low-income population.Not only do these case studies demonstrate the unique benefits of the cooperative and mutual structure at the grass root level but also show how established members are maintaining their values by supporting the development of microinsurance schemes outside of their market and geographical area.The publication gathers sixteen case studies, which include examples from North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa.
