By class of business

G General (Non-life)4 80%

Each company is counted once, under the class its register row records. The supervisor’s own tally counts licences, so a company licensed for more than one class appears more than once there.

By ownership

Pan-African group3 60%
State-owned / parastatal2 40%

“Cross-border groups” counts foreign multinationals and pan-regional groups; “domestically owned” counts domestic private, state-owned, mutual and captive entities. The register records the parent’s type, not its home market. How ownership is recorded

Verification log

Four non-life rows match the Minister's May 2023 count of four; with VidaSEguros (first life insurer, opened 6-7 May 2023) the market totals 5. No official list naming all five was retrieved, so not 'full register'. CIMA annual market reports (2021, 2022) give premiums for the market but no company names. CHANAS Assurances SA (GE) was placed under provisional administration by CRCA Décision N°0005-20 (2020); no decision lifting it was found, but it was still being sanctioned as a filing insurer in Feb 2025, so it is kept. Brokers found in directories (ASCOMA, Gras Savoye Guinea, Guinea Brokers, CKRE Internacional) and directory-only names (Satelite Seguros, COGUISE SL) are excluded. Africa Re is a shareholder of GEPetrol Seguros, not a separately listed local insurer.
