What's Next for Disaster Risk Financing?

Описание: Extreme weather is hitting harder and more often — and many countries can’t afford the cost of recovery. But a quiet revolution is underway.

This CSIS presentation uncovers how parametric insurance, catastrophe bonds, and regional risk pools are helping countries secure rapid funding after hurricanes and droughts — without waiting months for traditional aid.

Featuring examples from the Caribbean and Africa, we look at:
• How early hurricane payouts helped Grenada recover after Hurricane Beryl
• How Ghana secured drought insurance that paid out almost immediately
• Why global humanitarian aid is shrinking — and what must replace it
• How the U.S. can use innovative finance to strengthen global partnerships

A clear and timely explanation of the financial tools shaping the future of disaster response.
