Kenya's insurance sector demonstrated strong growth in the second quarter of 2025, with general insurance claims easing and long-term insurance premiums significantly rising. The positive trend is largely attributed to macroeconomic stability and the adoption of digital distribution.

• Gross written premiums in the long-term insurance sector rose to Sh110.39 billion, marking a strong 17.7 percent growth compared to the same period in 2024.
• The Insurance Regulatory Authority (IRA), led by Commissioner of Insurance and CEO Godfrey K. Kiptum, reported that this period reflects resilience, particularly in long-term business.
• The general insurance business incurred claims worth Sh55.06 billion, representing 73 percent of losses, an improvement from the 76.5 percent recorded in 2024, signaling recovery despite challenges in medical and motor insurance.
