Our team was greatly delighted to have been hosted for a mid-morning meeting by our key client – KUSCCO Mutual Assurance at their Head Office in Upperhill, Nairobi. KUSCCO is a profitable life insurance company and has a reinsurance program with us.  The meeting, that was led by KUSSCO Mutual Assurance Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Martin Gillo, and Kenya Re General Manager in charge of Reinsurance Operations (GMR), Beth Nyaga, was a great eye-opener for exploration of deeper opportunities for partnership aimed at catapulting both entities to exceptional business excellence.

In particular, the meeting resolved to join forces in the areas of training through Kenya Re’s premier learning centre – Kenya Re Training Academy. Under this partnership, Kenya Re intends to move a notch higher and customize a high-impact training for our valued partner – KUSCCO, on life underwriting, claims and intrinsic reinsurance operations.

The GMR Beth Nyaga-led team also made a solid pitch for upscale of shares in the next renewal cycle from the current statutory capacity as a commitment to intensifying the growing partnership.  The collaborative meeting also delved into thought-provoking discussions towards sustenance of the existing open communication, sharing of market information and data intelligence to bolster prudent decision making as well as innovative solutions to current industry challenges. Together, we agreed on a viable roadmap to address key outstanding matters such as balances and common interest in growing together.

Both entities expressed their shared excitement of a very bright future that lies ahead for KUSCCO and Kenya Re through rapid collaboration for joint prosperity. Mr. Gillo was joined in this meeting by Head of Underwriting - Anne Muchira, Senior Life Underwriter – Terry Chebii, Senior Reinsurance Officer – Daniel Miano and– Assistant Reinsurance Officer – Clinton Kirima. Mrs. Nyaga was accompanied by Acting Manager – Life Business, Mr. Yoves Angwenyi, Assistant Manager – Life Business, Ms. Jackline Karimi as well as Marketing & Business Development Officer, Mr. Edwin Muthabuku.
