[MFP] Read our latest papers on business viability and achieving scale

 

Although insurers are becoming more active in microinsurance and are optimistic about future profitability, questions around whether insurers achieve returns for shareholders for microinsurance need to be examined further. The ILO's Microinsurance Innovation Facility has released two new papers that explore some of these questions. 

Business case for microinsurance part II: Follow-up study on the profitability of microinsurance investigates whether corrective measures implemented by insurers that were facing challenges with profitability have been successful over the longer term. Authored by J. Angove, and A. Dalal, this paper follows the financial experience of six insurers over three years (2009-2012), looking at changes to some of their microinsurance initiatives and providing new insights into drivers of profitability.

Achieving scale was found to be one of the success factors for profitable microinsurance schemes; however to achieve scale is difficult. M. Thom, J. Gray, M. Müller, and J. Leachreviewed microinsurance initiatives that have achieved scale  to identify and understand their trends and drivers in scale. Scale: Thinking big analysed 95 initiatives that achieved scale and evaluated 8 case studies in detail to understand what drives scale.
