Karuaihe-Martin is set to officially take the reins during the AIO Conference in Windhoek slated for 1 to 5 June 2024.

She said the AIO Conference serves as a platform for knowledge exchange, capacity building, networking, and policy advocacy within the African insurance sector.

It addresses emerging trends and challenges, with this year’s theme focusing on “Coping with Rising Natural Disasters in Africa.”

“The AIO Conference serves as a platform for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and networking among insurance professionals across the African continent,” she said.

She further explained that this year commemorates the 100th AIO Board Meeting, a significant milestone Namibia is proud to host.

The occasion not only showcases Namibia on a global scale but also offers a valuable opportunity for local corporate leaders to establish connections and exchange insights on pertinent topics such as climate change, and the evolution of the insurance sector, and promote sustainable enterprises.

“It was anticipated that the event would convene approximately 1,000 CEOs and professionals from the finance and insurance sectors across Africa,” she said.

Karuaihe-Martin also said that the conference harbours long-term goals aimed at fostering sustainable growth and development.

These include driving innovation and digital transformation, enhancing financial inclusion, advocating for regulatory reforms, and creating a conducive environment for industry advancement.

The African Insurance Organisation is a non-governmental entity established in 1972 and acknowledged by all African nations.

It aims to advance insurance education tailored to African markets, champion best practices, undertake projects showcasing insurance benefits, and foster alliances with African insurance associations.
