Savings & Credit Forum. From risk to resilience: Harnessing Financial Services as a tool to build resilience
SDC’s Economy Network with CGAP and the Microinsurance Network (MiN) invite you to the next Savings & Credit Forum.
This year’s Savings and Credit Forum focuses on how financial services can contribute to building resilience in the face of shocks related to climate change. Enhancing resilience against the detrimental impacts of a warming climate necessitates access to financial tools such as insurance, savings, loans, and payment methods. These resources aid households and businesses in vulnerable areas to prepare for and expedite recovery from climate-related shocks and pressures, which are becoming increasingly frequent and severe.
We will address the question of how to go from "pilot to scale" while paying special attention to the roles of innovation, system change and sustainability when scaling climate-responsive financial products.
The event will take place online.
