The purpose of this research was to characterize the FP by reviewing official sources that made known the main actors involved, types of instruments, regulatory frameworks, advances and challenges.

The challenges focus on the articulation of the public and private sectors, on the creation of regulatory frameworks and the design of products for vulnerable groups.
