Today, Generali and UNDP launched a joint report “Parametric insurance to build financial resilience”, aimed at supporting the most vulnerable communities around the world and addressing the growing financial protection gap. This work demonstrates how parametric insurance can support governments, businesses and communities to financially prepare for increasingly frequent and severe natural hazards, from drought, extreme heat and tropical cyclones to storm surges, earthquakes and other shocks. Different case studies enhance the understanding of how parametric policies work, as well as their role in protecting people and assets in the event of hazards and shocks.
