Local non-life company
SAAR’s Senegal presentation distinguishes its non-life subsidiary from SAAR Vie and reports that the non-life operation began in April 2015. It gives the local Mermoz office as a contact point for discussing insurance needs in Senegal.
The shared website mixes life and non-life product navigation. Specific products have not been assigned without clearer underwriting-entity evidence.
