This playbook sets out, for the first time, a practical framework for how the insurance sector can engage in blended finance to close climate- and health-related protection gaps. It highlights three core roles for insurers — as risk advisors, (re)insurers, and investors — and shows how these can be applied across the blended finance deal cycle to mobilise capital for resilience, prevention, and recovery.
The playbook provides actionable guidance for the insurance sector, governments, and development partners to work together in this space — from upstream design and risk analytics to downstream implementation and investment.
