About this Expert Forum
Women play an important role for economic development in emerging economies, yet are far more likely than men to be excluded from formal financial services and are disproportionately impacted by poor health and climate change. This double-whammy of greater risk and weaker protection leaves women – many of whom work in the informal economy or in climate-vulnerable sectors urgently in need of risk management tools.
However, products tailored to meet the specific needs of women are scarce and lack of access, poor awareness and financial illiteracy all hinder the economic empowerment of women.
What exactly are the current gender gaps that exist and what efforts are being made to address them and bring much-needed solutions to women to build their resilience? What concrete opportunities lie in store for meaningful change and how can the inclusive insurance ecosystem help to move this forward?
Join our Expert Forum on Thursday, 30 September at 4pm CEST to tackle these questions and more with our illustrious panel – see below!
