The 7th Annual Africa Insurance and Reinsurance Conference 2017 | Aidem Business Solutions | 21 June 2017 | Nairobi, Kenya

The Africa Insurance & Reinsurance Conference, a regionally focused event now in its 7th edition has steadily become a gateway for the global and regional investors to engage local leaders as they seek ways to increase insurance penetration in the continent. Notwithstanding unprecedented economic growth (a substantial component of this dependent on the financial & insurance sector), industry experts say that the insurance market in the continent still remain small and comparatively underdeveloped. The growth potential going forward is therefore significantly high and insurance industry must strive for competitive excellence by increasingly seeking new growth markets and products.
