Avana Microinsurance was founded as a social enterprise in early 2010 to further bridge the gap between established insurance companies and underserved, low income communities.

Avana, derived from the ancient Sanskrit word for ‘protection’, is a social business that provides low income clients access to tailored, demand-driven microinsurance products, including bundled coverage for risks related to life, health and property. As a dedicated solutions provider, Avana Microinsurance offers consulting, product development and program implementation services to this important market.
