Verification log

Partially verified - SLICOM's own register page lists only the insurance companies registered for 2010 (8 companies), recovered from an archived capture of slicom.gov.sl; the live SLICOM site (slicom.org.sl) publishes no register at all · Sierra Leone Insurance Commission, 'Insurers' page of the former official site www.slicom.gov.sl, section 'Find below the list of Insurance Companies registered for 2010' - 8 insurance companies with address and classes of business (the same page also lists 'Licensed and Registered Insurance Brokers 2014', excluded as intermediaries). The page is no longer live: slicom.gov.sl now serves a suspended-account page over HTTP and presents an expired self-signed certificate over HTTPS, so the page was retrieved from Internet Archive captures of the regulator's own URL (2016-08-11 and 2017-08-26, identical content).

The only official SLICOM list of insurance companies that could be retrieved is the 'Insurance Companies registered for 2010' table from the regulator's former site slicom.gov.sl (archived capture; the domain now serves a suspended-account page and the live site slicom.org.sl carries no register). Four rows - Aureol, National Insurance Company, RITCORP and Sierra Leone Insurance Company - are confirmed on that 2010 list; Activa and WAICA Re post-date that list and are neither confirmed nor contradicted by it. Four companies on the 2010 list (International Insurance, Marine and General, Trans-World, Medical and General) were not added because their current licence status cannot be established from a 2010 list.

Popularity is an estimate of how often people search Google for each insurer, from 0 to 100; the bars show how confident the estimate is. Not a rating of the insurer. How the index works
