AM Best to Sponsor and Attend 50th Annual African Insurance Organisation Conference

AM Best will sponsor and attend the 50th African Insurance Organisation (AIO) Conference and Annual General Assembly, to be held 1-5 June 2024 in Windhoek, Namibia.

Nick Charteris-Black, managing director, market development, Europe, Middle East and Africa, AM Best, along with Dr Edem Kuenyehia, director, market development and communications, and in his capacity as AM Best’s director for market development in Africa, will be in attendance and will be conducting scheduled bilateral meetings with industry stakeholders during the conference to discuss Best’s Credit Ratings and Best’s Performance Assessments for Delegated Underwriting Authority Enterprises (DUAE), along with other insurance sector reports, data and analytic resources available to insurance professionals. To schedule a meeting with the AM Best delegation, please email charlotte.shoesmith@ambest.com.

AM Best is a sponsor of the event, which is themed as “Coping With Rising Natural Catastrophes Across Africa.” Topics during the programme center on the implications of increased catastrophic events across the continent and insurance’s role in building resilience and mitigating related losses. Discussions will include how natural catastrophes compound Africa’s insurance penetration dilemma, a rethink on catastrophe modeling and integrating technologies, as well as life insurance in the face of climate risks and others.

The AIO, established in 1972, is a non-governmental organisation recognised by many African governments. It was established to help develop a healthy insurance industry and to foster insurance co-operation in Africa.
