Africa region, we take pride in our historic milestones over
the years by imprinting GIG in the hearts and minds of people
as a leader and pioneer of insurance services with innovative products and
distribution

2022 is
a year of celebration for our family as we are marking GIG’s
60th anniversary, recognizing all the hardships that we faced throughout these
years
to
be known as a Regional Insurance Powerhouse.
Despite the very challenging last two years with the
worldwide pandemic environment, we have been strongly
able to adapt and adopt a resilient business strategy with
latest technologies required for emergent events to protect
employees, customers. Transparency and quality relations
are what have kept us to continue our success story and
deliver our promises throughout these years.
During 2022, we are targeting to introduce new regional
innovative products and evolved our brand to smartly
position GIG proudly for the years ahead.
Our regional
expansion strategy has been accelerated in the past year by
entering into two new markets of Oman and Qatar with the
acquisition of AXA’s insurance operations in the Gulf region,
which is considered as one of the largest acquisition in the
region.
Following a successful digitalization experience, the
transformation journey has been significantly progressed in
all core areas despite pandemic challenges. The key focus of
our digital strategy is to transform the Group into customer
centric and data driven digital organization with a view to
achieve sustainable competitive advantage and profitability.
As importantly, our approach to Corporate Social
Responsibility is also significant and we are always
committed to coordinating and supporting initiatives that
benefits society and functions as a dynamic member of the
community in the markets we operate in.

stakeholders for making our journey successful and are
