How Insutec Supports Insurance Act Compliance

The Insurance Act 18 of 2017 is the primary law governing how South African insurers are licensed, governed, and regulated. It brought long-term and short-term insurance regulation under one framework and underpins the FSCA and Prudential Authority's ongoing supervision of the industry.

What the Insurance Act covers

Insutec helps you keep the records and reporting the Insurance Act depends on organized and current:

  • Licensing requirements
    • Conditions for insurer and reinsurer licensing, including fit-and-proper requirements for key persons
  • Governance requirements
    • Board composition, risk management, and internal control obligations
  • Regulatory reporting and disclosure
    • Ongoing prudential and conduct reporting to the FSCA and Prudential Authority
  • Intervention and enforcement provisions
    • Powers of the regulator where an insurer falls short of its obligations

Depending on your license category and the nature of your book, Insutec may also help address Insurance Act provisions not listed above.
