We are proud that as part of the Insurance Development Forum we had an opportunity to shape the blueprint that will facilitate insurance sector investments into resilient infrastructure.
The blueprint is a game-changer that aims to establish an extensive pipeline of infrastructure projects that align with the investment requirements of the insurance sector.
This initiative stands as strong commitment of Zurich, together with other IDF members, to foster the resilience of at-risk communities in emerging and developing economies against the escalating threats of climate change and natural disasters. Together we can make a difference, ensuring that resilience becomes a reality for all, not just a privilege for some.

PRESS RELEASE: The Insurance Development Forum (IDF) announced today plans to facilitate insurance sector investments in resilient infrastructure that will enhance the resilience of vulnerable communities in emerging and developing economies to risks from climate change and other natural disasters.
Over the last 12 months, the IDF Infrastructure Task Force has developed a blueprint designed as catalyst for driving greater mobilisation and more impactful insurance sector investment in a critical, underserved segment of the infrastructure market.
This blueprint seeks to create a pipeline of infrastructure projects that match insurance sector investment requirements. The blueprint, which has been developed by leading IDF insurance company members, is strongly aligned with the purpose of the IDF and its objective to optimise and extend the use of insurance and its related risk management and financial capabilities to build greater resilience to climate change risks and other natural disasters.
The IDF is working with BlackRock to put its blueprint into action, leveraging the global asset manager’s significant infrastructure investment and blended finance expertise and familiarity with insurance industry investment requirements. BlackRock has a long track record of investing in diversified infrastructure globally, including social, digital, and transition-related infrastructure.
