About Us
The Insurers Association of Mauritius (IAM), formerly known as the Insurance Council of Mauritius (IACOM), has been a pivotal institution since its inception in 1972. In 2001, IAM's constitution was revised leading to the establishment of a dedicated full-time secretariat and the organisation's objectives updated to align with the evolving needs of the industry.
IAM engages with various stakeholders including ministries, government bodies, trade bodies, business organisations, media, and the public at large. This multifaceted interaction underscores IAM's commitment to fostering collaboration and driving positive change within the insurance industry of Mauritius.
IAM's influence extends beyond the shores of Mauritius, as it stands as a proud founding member of the African Insurance Organisation (AIO), established in the same year as IAM.
Over the years, IAM has evolved to play a leading role in the insurance industry fostering strong relationships, facilitating dialogue, and influencing decisions that matter among all stakeholders.
