## Content

## In Short
- InsuResilience Solutions Fund will co-fund the expansion of OKO Mali’s index-based agricultural insurance.
- The project targets climate resilience support for 40,000 farming households.
- OKO Finance will support product design, performance monitoring, and project management.

## What Happened
The InsuResilience Solutions Fund has announced co-funding to scale OKO Mali’s index-based agricultural insurance solution. The goal is to strengthen climate resilience for 40,000 farming households.

Index-based agricultural insurance is a type of cover that pays out when a measurable trigger happens, like rainfall dropping below a set level. This differs from traditional crop insurance, which often requires on-farm loss assessments.

[OKO Finance](/oko-finance) will support the programme with product design, performance monitoring, and project management. Product design covers how the insurance is priced and when it pays out. Performance monitoring means tracking whether the triggers, payouts, and farmer experience are working as intended.

The project is framed as a multi-layer risk management tool for farmers. In practice, this usually means combining different protections, such as advisory, savings, and insurance, so a single shock does not wipe out a household’s income.

## Why It Matters
Climate risk is rising across the Sahel, and smallholder farmers often have limited buffers when rains fail or seasons shift. Index insurance can speed up payouts because it relies on data triggers rather than field inspections.

For operators and partners, the hard part is execution, building trust, setting fair triggers, and ensuring farmers understand what is covered. Strong monitoring and clear product design can reduce disputes and improve renewal rates.

If the programme succeeds at scale, it could set a template for other markets looking to expand agricultural microinsurance and climate adaptation finance.
