The Zimbabwe Insurance and Pensions Commission has published remarks by African Insurance Organisation (AIO) President Yared Mola urging African reinsurers to pursue innovation, collaboration and inclusion to build a more resilient and globally competitive reinsurance sector that can support Africa’s development agenda. Speaking at the 29th African Reinsurance Forum in Harare, Mola argued that reinsurers can help drive economic growth by increasing insurance penetration, diversifying risks and forming strategic partnerships. He identified agriculture, renewable energy, climate change adaptation, cyber security and infrastructure as priority growth areas, while warning that global volatility, economic and political instability, emerging risks such as climate change and cyber threats, and evolving regulatory frameworks will require investment in data analytics, knowledge sharing, specialised expertise and continuous compliance.
