Mandated by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), KfW has set up a new facility to support the development of innovative climate risk insurance products and insurance markets in developing countries – the InsuResilience Solutions Fund. The fund will support the development of new climate risk insurance products for governments, humanitarian organizations, small and medium sized enterprises as well as private households by providing partial grant-funding and expertise for product development.

The InsuResilience Solutions Fund is an important contribution of KfW to achieve the target of the international initiative on climate risk insurance ’InsuResilience’ aiming at increasing the number of the most vulnerable developing countries who have access to climate risk insurance coverage by up to 400 million between 2015 and 2020.

High level representatives from our partner countries, Global Parametrics, Save the Children, Vision Fund International and Welthungerhilfe will discuss how to further develop climate risk insurance products most suitable to support the poor and vulnerable.
