  1. KENYA LIVESTOCK INSURANCE PROGRAM (KLIP)Lessons learnt from implementing index based livestock insurance – Implementers views INDEX INSURANCE FOR LIVESTOCK IN THE IGAD REGION – ADDIS, ETHIOPIA 24th to 26th JUNE 2019 Richard Kyuma, PhD., OGW KLIP Program Coordinator State Department of Livestock

  2. Justification for Livestock Insurance • Kenya is vulnerable to frequent and extremely expensive natural disasters; • High frequency of drought (every 2-4 years); • 2008 - 2011 PDNA: Total drought losses to Kenyan economy: KShs 968.6 billion and reduction of GDP by 2.8% each year. 72% of this loss is related to livestock; • Severe droughtscausesmorethan 15% mortality of livestock;

  3. KLIP Design • Designed to use forage availability as determined by satellite data - Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) to derive an insurance product; • Following the successful piloting of ILRI designed IBLI • Currently the National government provides 100% premium support for 5 tropical livestock units (TLU) for each vulnerable pastoralist; • The insuring company makes payouts directly to the accounts of the beneficiaries when there is a trigger. • World Bank and ILRI provide technical support

  5. KLIP Coverage • 8 ASAL Counties under KLIP • Turkana, Wajir , Marsabit, Isiolo, Tana River, Mandera , • Garissaand Samburu

  6. KLIP Progress and Achievements • Period of insurance cover 2015 to 2019 (4 years) • Currently implementing a fully subsidised KLIP product. • 5 TLUs insured for every beneficiary. • 18,000 households covered and 120,000 people benefit annually • Kshs. 706 Millions - Premiums paid by GoK to date • Kshs. 790 Million - Insurance payouts by insurance companies • 90,000 TLUs protected annually valued at Kshs. 4.5Billion

  11. Challenges • Low funding levels • Low awareness creationand capacity building levels • Beneficiary data management – (manual registers) • High premiums • Slow payout pathways
