PartialPartially verified against the CIMA / CRCA register, checked 2 Sept 2026.
The CIMA / CRCA register for Niger as the directory holds it: 8 licensed insurers with the identifiers the register carries, ready to export as JSON.
Snapshot
By class of business
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
“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 du Controle des Assurances' Rapport sur le marche nigerien des assurances, exercice 2022 (October 2023), Annexe II, which lists the market's eight licensed companies as at 31 December 2022: six non-life and two life. All five rows matched; two class codes corrected from composite to general because the supervisor licenses the two Sunu entities and every other company for a single branch; three companies added. The list is dated 31 December 2022 and is the newest the supervisor has published, so no row was removed.
