Definition of Microinsurance
Microinsurance is a division of microfinance which looks to aid poor families by offering
insurance plans tailored to their needs. Microinsurance is often found in developing countries,
where the current insurance markets are inefficient or non-existent. Because the coverage
value is lower than a usual insurance plan, the insured people pay considerably smaller
premiums.
there are some Microinsurance schemes which may cover various risks (health, life, etc.); the
most frequent microinsurance products are:
Disability microinsurance
Crop microinsurance
He probably has limited access to healthcare, proper sewage and clean water and thus
can be susceptible to poor health, leading to questions on insurability.
For the hard core poor they will most probably be dependent on loans and government
handouts to make ends meet from day to day. The ability to pay regular premiums is
therefore in doubt. For others the level of disposable income may fluctuate greatly
from month to month again affecting the ability to maintain a regular contribution
towards insurance.
