Abstract
A new study has called for the creation of an Emergency Health Financing Facility (EHFF) for the European Union (EU) healthcare sector, with the securitization of health emergency risks in the form of catastrophe bonds seen as a viable funding solution. The research study, undertaken and published by Professor David Veredas, Professor Simon Ashby and doctoral researcher Dimitrios Kolokas of Vlerick Business School, proposes the need for financial structures to support European Union health care.
