Pension Funds and Alternative Investments 2023 | AME Trade | 14 March 2023 | Le Méridien Ile Maurice, MU, Village Hall Lane, Pointe aux Piments 21304, Mauritius

Africa is one of the world’s hot regions for insurance. Steady economic growth in most countries combined with a largely underdeveloped insurance sector has positioned the continent as the second-fastest-growing region for insurance globally after Latin America. With deepening market penetration, the bulk of growth in Africa is expected to come from pensions and individual life insurance. Africa remains a largely underinsured region fuelled by a rising middle class.
