A2ii-FSI-IAIS-SARB Regional meeting for insurance supervisors from Sub-Saharan Africa
The upcoming regional meeting for Sub-Saharan Africa insurance supervisors will be organised virtually and hosted by the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), the Prudential Authority within the South African Reserve Bank, the Financial Stability Institute and the Access to Insurance Initiative.
2020 has been a unique, historic, and challenging year. Faced with a global pandemic which has had an unprecedented impact on the economies of the world and health and wellbeing of millions of people, as insurance supervisors, we have had to adapt very quickly to our new reality.
The 2021 regional meeting will afford insurance supervisors the opportunity to engage on topical issues impacting on insurers such as developments in climate change, cyber security, business interruption insurance, COVID-19 and its impact, and there will also be an opportunity for supervisors to share and engage on regulatory developments, supervisory developments and strategic initiatives in their respective jurisdictions.
The meeting will also provide an update on key activities and initiatives of the IAIS over the past year, and will also afford insurance supervisors the opportunity to engage in the overall strategic planning of the IAIS over the next few years.
The regional meeting will take the format of 3 hour sessions over two days (15 and 16 March 2021), and will be hosted virtually from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm.
