PCRIC at the FEMM in 50 words

PCRIC is here at FEMM to demonstrate to government leaders that there are impactful, affordable, and rapid solutions available to help nations recover and maintain resilience in the immediate aftermath of a natural disaster. These solutions rely upon nations collectively pooling their risk to form a larger market unit which attracts more competitive risk pricing. Together, with a modest amount of our own resources, PCRIC is then able to deliver significant benefit to  those of us facing the greatest of crises.
