In Lomé, African insurers focus on their financial health

The FANAF opened its 12th forum in Lomé on November 2, 2026, in partnership with the APSAT, to examine application of Article 13 of the CIMA Code, which requires premiums to be paid before an insurance contract takes effect or is renewed.

The sector generated 87 billion CFA francs in revenue in Togo in 2022, according to the APSAT.
