SASRIA can absorb a catastrophe claim of up to R20bn
The state-owned insurer says it is on track to reach R30bn in reserves by 2029 – but emerging risks could still put its resilience to the test.

The state-owned insurer says it is on track to reach R30bn in reserves by 2029 – but emerging risks could still put its resilience to the test.

SASRIA says the proclamation issued by President Ramaphosa follows its request for assistance from the Special Investigating Unit.

Sasria’s five-year strategic plan includes the reintroduction of R1bn excess of loss cover and expanding its coverage for events such as natural disasters.

Sasria’s coverage limits may be insufficient for many large corporates, which will require additional cover in the form of a riot wrap policy.
