Thank you @Diop_IFC for the rich discussion. Looking forward to deepening collaboration between @IFC_org and @InsDevForum
Pleased to meet Michel M. Liès Chair of @Zurich and Ekhosuehi Iyahen, Secretary General of @InsDevForum to identify areas of collaboration, particularly in agricultural insurance and impact investing. Looking forward to deepening our partnership!
Thank you @ASteiner for your leadership and foresight in helping shape and drive the work of @InsDevForum and the concrete programmes we have been able to develop with @UNDP to help address critical global protection gaps and support resilience.
As #climatechange escalates, strong partnerships btwn the insurance & dev sectors are critical for delivering on #ClimateAction & #SDGs. Joining the 14th Steering Committee of the @InsDevForum Mtg, I reaffirmed @UNDP's support to protect the 🌐’s poorest & vulnerable communities.
Concluding 2 days of intense meetings in D.C. Thanks to @InsDevForum SteerCo Chair Michel Liès @zurich Co-Chairs Hiroshi Matano @MIGA & @ASteiner @undp and @AxelVT_WB @WorldBank @Diop_IFC for constructive discussions on public private partnerships for global resilience.
At the @InsDevForum today, I emphasized the importance of effective, concrete partnerships btw @WorldBank Group & private sector - starting with the insurance industry - to build long-term resilience. I welcomed joint initiatives for de-risking in low- & middle-income countries.
Thank you @SwissAmbWB for your leadership and support of @InsDevForum and the critical work being done to build greater global #resilience.
Very constructive meeting with the Chairman, the SG and Management of the Insurance Development Forum.
The #IDF is a successful development #Partnership, bringing together the insurance industry, @UNDP, @MIGA, the @WorldBank and others.
We need more such initiatives!
