Safeguarding Marine Ecosystems and Society : The Role of Insurance in Protecting Nature and Supporting Sustainable Tourism (English)

These products can provide funds for ecosystem restoration after a disaster occurs. This report points to several opportunities and ways forward for developing ecosystem insurance. Despite the challenges facing efforts to develop such insurance, advances are possible and could benefit both the insurance sector and Caribbean tourism industry.
