Company Description
Jubilee Insurance is the largest and oldest composite insurance group in East Africa, having been established in 1937 with a footprint that now spans Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi, and Mauritius. In Uganda, the company has historically dominated the market, consistently maintaining a top position in terms of market share and gross written premiums. The firm is known for its strong financial stability and a diverse range of products that cater to both the burgeoning corporate sector and the individual retail market across the country.
A significant shift occurred in recent years when the group entered into a strategic partnership with Allianz, a global financial services leader, leading to the rebranding of its general insurance business as Jubilee Allianz General Insurance Limited. Under this arrangement, Jubilee retains a significant stake while benefiting from Allianz’s global technical expertise and digital capabilities. Meanwhile, the life and medical insurance segments continue to operate under the core Jubilee Insurance brand, focusing on long-term financial planning, pension schemes, and comprehensive healthcare coverage for thousands of Ugandans.
The company has heavily invested in digital transformation to make insurance more accessible, introducing mobile-based products and online portals for policy management and claims filing. This innovation is part of a broader strategy to increase insurance penetration in Uganda, which remains lower than the regional average. By focusing on customer-centric service and timely claim settlements, Jubilee has built a reputation for reliability, supported by a vast network of agents, brokers, and bank partners through its bancassurance channels.
