Asia Insurance Review, together with RFPI Asia as co-organizer, put together its First Inclusive Insurance Conference to look into how the insurance industry, powered by digitalization and blockchain technology, deliver protection to everybody, especially the poor and vulnerable, against extreme weather events and other risks. And equally as important, the conference also looked into how the regulatory framework is adapting to the advance technological changes to drive growth, create new value and promote financial inclusion.
Key insurance stakeholders have declared that the use of technology is a game changer in the industry as it paves way to new business models, innovative products and services, as well as more tailored and interactive ways of engaging customers .
Microinsurance distribution in the Philippines is primarily through microfinance institutions (MFIs) and pawnshops. This creates the concentration of microinsurance access within a specific population segment within a similar location due to focused distribution channels. It limits expansion and access to the full market of microinsurance and creates unhealthy pooled risks. Expansion through new distribution channels is required to effectively and efficiently reach a wider pool of customers, and expand protection in different market segments and with a wider range of products.
This industry brief builds on the knowledge and subject matter expertise of business leaders, subject matter experts, regulators and customers. The findings and analysis are the result of insights gathered while consulting with the different actors in the Microinsurance value chain. The study will primarily entail surveys, in-depth interviews and focus-group discussion to be able to determine what each stakeholder has been doing in the past one year and know what else is in the pipeline.
