Tóm tắt

This report aims to highlight opportunities for developing ecosystem-linked insurance - that is, insurance that integrates the effect of ecosystems in products covering coastal hazards. These products can provide funds for ecosystem restoration after a disaster occurs. This report points to several opportunities and ways forward for developing ecosystem insurance. Despite the challenges facing efforts to develop such insurance, advances are possible and could benefit both the insurance sector and Caribbean tourism industry.
