The proposed project seeks to foster inclusion in the insurance market by supporting the expansion of S123. The solution will address the main barriers to inclusion by: (i) lowering the cost of premiums through the expansion of an online aggregation platform that fosters competition among insurance providers and economies of scale; (ii) increasing accessibility by broadening online delivery channels directed at low-income clients; (iii) enticing demand by increasing awareness of the benefits of insurance protection among vulnerable populations through an education campaign; and (iv) rolling out new health and asset protection insurance products tailored to low-income segments.
