Verification log

Verified - full register · Direction Nationale des Assurances (DNA) du Gabon, section "Les Compagnies" of its Partenaires page - the supervisor's own list of insurance companies grouped by licence category (compagnies d'assurances non vie, compagnies d'assurance vie, compagnies de micro assurance, societes de reassurance), retrieved 23 Sep 2026: 12 entities. Corroborated by the DNA's own Rapport d'activites du marche gabonais des assurances, exercice 2024 (edition 2025), section B.2, which states that during 2024 "onze (11) societes, soit six (06) en assurance non-vie, quatre (04) en assurance vie et une (01) en micro-assurance, ont exerce sur le marche" and that one company practises reinsurance, the Societe Commerciale Gabonaise de Reassurance (SCG RE) - 6 + 4 + 1 + 1 = 12, exactly the web list.

Reconciled against the Direction Nationale des Assurances du Gabon's own list of insurance companies (dnagabon.ga/partenaires/, retrieved 23 Sep 2026), corroborated by the DNA's Rapport d'activites du marche gabonais des assurances exercice 2024: 6 non-life, 4 life, 1 micro-insurer and 1 reinsurer. All 7 rows matched; 5 entities added (Sunu Assurances Vie Gabon, NSIA Vie Assurance, Wafa Assurances Vie, Samb'A Assurances, SCG-Re); 4 rows reclassified from composite to general because the CIMA Code requires life and non-life to be separately licensed and the DNA lists each of them under non-life only. The DNA list does not name parents, so group data for the added rows is unchanged from what the register shows.
