Verification log

Verified - full register · Conseil National des Assurances (CNA), 'Acteurs > Societes d'assurance' - the directory of agreed insurance companies, 27 entries over 3 pages, each entry carrying that company's Ministry of Finance arrete d'agrement as published in the Journal Officiel. Retrieved 23 Sep 2026. To be plain about what it is: this is the CNA's own directory, not a list issued by the supervisor. The CNA is the consultative council created by decret executif 95-339 under the tutelle of the Ministry of Finance; the supervisor is the Commission de Supervision des Assurances / Direction des Assurances inside that ministry, whose site (mf.gov.dz) timed out on every attempt today and whose Commission has no site of its own. What the CNA republishes is the ministry's own agrement decrees, one per company, which is why it is treated here as the register.

Reconciled against the CNA directory of agreed insurance companies (27 entries, each with its Ministry of Finance arrete d'agrement), 23 Sep 2026: all 22 rows matched, nothing removed, three companies added (CNMA, El Djazair Takaful and El-Djazair El-Moutahida de Takaful Familial) and Salama Assurances Algerie corrected from takaful to general, its agrement being a conventional non-life one. MAATEC appears on the directory but its agrement lapsed on 16 May 2017 and is not counted; the GAM takaful window is a licensed window inside GAM Assurances, not a separate company.
