[MFP] EDM journal edition on microinsurance

 

The March 2014 edition of Enterprise Development and Microfinance in now online at http://developmentbookshelf.com/content/x30338255v72/. It deals with the theme of Microinsurance (see contents list below) and is guest edited by Véronique Faber and Michal Matul. Microinsurance has come a long way; it is reaching more poor people and it is providing protection against shocks and vulnerability. However, there is still much innovation needed to develop appropriate products at the same time as covering business costs.
