A2ii offers two scholarships for the Microinsurance Master accelerator programme for insurance supervisors
As part of our ongoing mission to inspire and support insurance supervisors to promote inclusive and responsible insurance, A2ii is offering two partial scholarships for the September 2022 edition of the Microinsurance Master accelerator programme.
What is the Microinsurance Master accelerator?
Microinsurance Master is a unique accelerator programme for key microinsurance decision-makers.
Now entering its fourth edition, previous Microinsurance Master accelerators have been attended by 54 industry champions from 24 countries, representing insurers, intermediaries, InsurTechs, market enablers and regulators.
The Microinsurance Master 2022 accelerator
The Microinsurance Master accelerator starts on 12 September 2022 with a two-week immersion at Pioneer Insurance in the Philippines.
You will spend time with their clients, visit distribution partners and work with their staff to learn how Pioneer grew its microinsurance enrolments from 250,000 to over 18 million in five years. Participants also discuss inclusive insurance regulation with supervisors from the Filipino Insurance Commissioner and practitioners.
After your return home, a senior inclusive insurance regulation expert will mentor you for three months. This ensures that the key takeaways are implemented to benefit both the under-served communities you target and your organisation.
Upon completion of the accelerator programme, you will become a lifelong member of the Microinsurance Master alumni network, with like-minded leaders, including supervisors from Vietnam, Nigeria, South Africa, Papua New Guinea, and elsewhere.
The scholarship
- The scholarship will cover tuition fees, field trips/excursions, lunches in Manila and a minimum of eight mentoring sessions.
- Flights, hotel accommodation, Philippine visa, travel insurance, and dinners or leisure expenses are not covered
How to apply for the scholarship?
