About life business

Life assurance can provide a benefit on death or other insured events. Some contracts also include savings or retirement benefits. A life classification alone does not establish which of these products this insurer offers.

General guidance for the directory category. Specific products and terms must be confirmed with Sonavie.

Explore the Mali insurance market or other entries in this category.

Questions to ask about cover

  • Which insured events trigger payment and who receives the benefit?
  • Are premiums and benefits fixed, reviewable or linked to investments?
  • What happens if I miss a premium or end the policy early?

For an existing policy, use the insurer and service contact named on your policy schedule. Have your policy reference and a short description of the enquiry ready.
