Tinubu Enacts Sweeping Insurance Reforms With New Industry Act

The new law modernizes regulations by:

🟠updating old legislation,

🟠raising capital requirements,

🟠mandating coverage,

🟠setting digitization targets.

The reforms come despite Nigeria's historically low insurance penetration rate of under 1%. The sector shows strong growth potential, with gross premiums hitting $1.9 billion in 2023 and projections reaching $7.84 billion by year-end. This rapid expansion is attracting significant interest from global insurers looking to enter the Nigerian market.
