» Summary (English)
This inventory gives an overview of existing and newly planned micro-insurance schemes (MIS) in Nepal. It is intended for promoters and practitioners of micro-insurance schemes, including Government, employers′ organizations and trade unions throughout the region. Twenty-one organizations that have been operating micro-insurance schemes were surveyed in this study, with an overall coverage of less than two thousand people so far. The report suggests that all the schemes have a potential to almost duplicate the number of beneficiaries in a few years; many of the organizations are planning to launch MIS in the near future, especially in health care. The report includes the questionnaire used to collect the data for the inventory.
