With Africa’s emerging economies still among the fastest growing in the world, the potential of the African insurance sector is underscored by its inextricable links with economic growth, coupled with current low market penetration.

In particular, digital innovation, the expansion of South African insurers into numerous other African countries, and moves to regionalise regulatory laws and to increase reinsurance capacity through risk pooling arrangements on the continent, are driving growth in the sector.

Against the backdrop of these changes, we are well placed to provide you with strategic and meaningful assistance.

For many years, we have been providing African insurance law advice to our clients, who include leading African and international insurance companies, Lloyd’s syndicates, local and international brokers and other intermediaries, as well as a variety of policyholders.
