About us

Promoting Professionalism and Consumer Protection in the Insurance Industry

The organization was formed to be able to ensure a high level of professionalism and intergrity amongst members while advocating for consumer protection, lobbying stakeholders for policies and regulations which are internationally acceptable and conducive for both local and international insurance markets.

Our history

The Rwanda Insurance Brokers Association (RIBA) was established in response to the growing need for coordination, professionalism, and advocacy within the insurance brokerage industry in Rwanda. Formed as a non-profit, member-based organization, RIBA brings together licensed insurance brokerage firms to promote ethical standards, enhance technical capacity, and represent the collective voice of brokers in policy and regulatory dialogue. Over the years, RIBA has grown into a key stakeholder in Rwanda’s financial sector, working closely with regulators, insurers, and consumers to improve trust and performance in the insurance market.

Our mission

To serve as a unifying and mediating body within Rwanda’s insurance sector, fostering professionalism, integrity, and trust among insurance brokers while championing consumer interests and promoting the adoption of internationally recognized standards and policies for a stronger and more competitive insurance market.

Our vision

To be the leading catalyst for a trusted, professional, and globally aligned insurance brokerage industry in Rwanda, empowering stakeholders and enhancing the sector’s contribution to national and international development
