Making Microinsurance Work: This learning paper by Scale2Save explores the challenges affecting the uptake of microinsurance across emerging markets. Drawing from real-world case studies in Côte d'Ivoire and Nigeria, it identifies key barriers and presents practical strategies to boost adoption. The report highlights innovative distribution approaches, customer education tactics, and partnership frameworks that drive scale and sustainability for inclusive insurance services.

In 2019, MiCRO and SBS Seguros, in partnership with Bancamía, launched "My Protected Investment", a microinsurance product for SMEs that combines index-based and traditional coverage. Three years after Colombia's first parametric insurance launch, the initiative had already reached almost 120,000 low-income beneficiaries, providing protection against hazards such as excess rain, drought, and earthquakes, while expanding access to underserved urban and rural clients.
