Book excerpt: This how-to manual guides managers of microfinance institutions (MFIs) through the complexities of offering basic insurance products, either on their own or in partnership with an insurance company. Insurance is one solution to help low-income households and microfinance institutions to manage risks, but it is not the only solution and it is not always the best solution. This manual helps determine whether it is appropriate to offer insurance, which type of insurance product(s) to offer, and through what institutional structure.
