Dear Importers, Compliance with mandatory Local Marine Cargo and Goods in Transit Insurance is crucial! But it is also important for you to understand your policy inside out. Know the inclusions & exclusions of your cover. And very importantly, familiarize yourself with the Claims Process so that you know what to do when the unpleasant strikes. Get your cover conveniently via through a licensed insurer or a licensed intermediary. #TotyaLoss #LocalMarineInsurance

Barbra Rukundo, a student and researcher at @kyambogou SoME, sheds light on critical gaps in understanding and trust surrounding Motor Third Party Insurance (MTP), particularly in the claims process. Her study reveals that only 4% of the population fully understands MTP insurance, while 52% have limited knowledge, and 44% are unaware of its purpose entirely. Many see it as just a legal requirement rather than a valuable protection policy. To bridge this gap, Barbra recommends that the UIA collaborates with local leaders and transport unions to run awareness workshops in high-traffic areas, distribute educational posters in local languages, and introduce community insurance ambassadors to enhance public understanding. #UIASoMEPartnership

Ivan Wamono, a student and researcher at @kyambogou, presents his findings on Life Insurance, exploring how micro-insurance products, public awareness campaigns, and financial literacy programs could enhance insurance penetration and customer engagement. His research also examines the decline in active policyholders from 85% to 60% identifying key factors behind this trend. He urges the UIA to adopt strategies that improve policyholder retention and ensure long-term market stability. #UIASoMEPartnership

Speaking at the SoME-UIA Research Collaboration Dissemination Workshop, our CEO Jonan Kisakye points out the existing knowledge gap in insurance and the need to bridge it through strategic collaborations. He reaffirms UIA’s commitment to supporting this partnership with the necessary resources and information. Jonan acknowledges that public skepticism towards insurance arises from key challenges that research can help address. Emphasizing the need for a more proactive industry approach, he notes that such efforts would not only strengthen the insurance sector but also generate valuable insights to drive innovation. Expressing confidence in @kyambogou’s potential, he envisions it evolving into a national hub for insurance research. Jonan concludes by extending gratitude to the teams at UIA and Kyambogo SoME for their dedication and commitment to advancing research in this field. #UIASoMEPartnership
