TY  - BOOK
AB - Provision of climate resilient agricultural parametric insurance is highly variable. Regulatory support is an enabler of widened supply of parametric insurance, which can be designed in a pro-poor and climate adaptive manner. The aims of this book are to: (i) assess organic evolution of climate change resilient agricultural parametric insurance provision; (ii) evaluate regulation of climate change agricultural parametric insurance in Africa and related contexts; (iii) provide an idealised regulatory framework and detailed regulatory guidance to facilitate insurance as a climate risk tool. This research draws on the launch of the WINnERS programme in Tanzania, literature analysis and interviews with critical market participants. A regulatory framework and accompanying guidance is presented which is practical and implementable, addressing the issues of regulatory comprehensiveness and coherence. It is intended to facilitate the identification of gaps and barriers as insurance regulators seek to secure the protective and promotive elements of parametric insurance for climate change resilient agriculture.
