IAIS issues a joint publication on inclusive insurance and financial health with CGAP and the Office of the UNSGSA

The IAIS today issued “Inclusive Insurance as a Pillar of Financial Health: Measurement, Policy, and Practice”, a publication developed with CGAP and the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Financial Health (UNSGSA).

The document examines how inclusive insurance can help households manage financial needs, cope with shocks, pursue their goals and strengthen financial resilience. It highlights key challenges — including fragmented evidence, limited policy attention, low trust, affordability constraints, and high delivery costs — and calls for coordinated and proportionate action to further embed inclusive insurance in financial health frameworks through measurement, policy, and customer-focused practice.

The document is available here.
