IDB Issues Hurricane Parametric Insurance for Belize Backed by Swiss Re
The IDB issued Belize parametric hurricane insurance backed by Swiss Re, covering up to $20M of risk with a maximum payout of $10M per policy year from 1 Aug 2026 to 31 May 2028. The coverage is designed to provide rapid emergency financing once triggered, complementing existing contingent financing and climate-resilient debt options that can defer principal payments after eligible disasters.
