The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Insurance and Risk Finance Facility (IRFF) in collaboration with the National Insurance Commission (NIC) and the Insurance Awareness Coordinators' Group have launched some extensive micro insurance / inclusive insurance clinics which will engage market traders and artisans in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (GAMA).
The clinics will take the form of interactive sessions with these informal sector workers on the risks they face in their business and personal lives.
These will take place in strategic locations such as Ada, Sege, Kasoa, Galilea, Prampram etc.
In his keynote address, and ultimately launching these inclusive clinics, the Commissioner of Insurance (ag), Mr Michael Kofi Andoh, emphasized the need for the insurance sector to grow exponentially with focus on the informal sector.
