Each company is counted once, under the class its register row records. The supervisor’s own tally counts licences, so a company licensed for more than one class appears more than once there.

By ownership

  • Domestic private6 50%
  • Pan-African group5 42%
  • Foreign multinational1 8%

“Cross-border groups” counts foreign multinationals and pan-regional groups; “domestically owned” counts domestic private, state-owned, mutual and captive entities. The register records the parent’s type, not its home market. How ownership is recorded

Verification log

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.
