Voices of our beneficiaries: The power of micro insurance

Together with our partners at Women's World Banking, the Lead Foundation and AXA Egypt, Swiss Re is helping to endure micro health insurance for the Lead Foundation's clients in and around Cairo. When we wanted to understand the impact of Lead's work, we went directly to the women who had used the insurance that is part of the microfinance provided by Lead.

For these women, the power of insurance is real. The money they received to fund their medical treatment, or to keep their businesses up and running is a tangible benefit. It's just one of the ways we are making emerging consumers more resilient.​
