Who are we?
Our Vision: "To be a trusted, leading insurance and reinsurance risk transfer platform"
The company’s thrust is to enable access to affordable and reliable international financial security solutions which are customised to meet the unique needs of the African market. We promote the development of relevant products and services with due recognition of the risk-specific and market-specific factors.
We promote active risk management to make insurance a sustainable risk transfer mechanism in the long term. Insurance is designed to transfer that part of risk that is uneconomical to retain or manage. Our passion is to make insurance a central part of the development agenda in Africa.
We pride ourselves as a leader in providing insurance and risk advisory services, reinsurance intermediary services as well as skills development on the African continent.
We have developed very strong relationships with insurers and reinsurers in Africa and globally which enables us to provide customised, affordable and reliable risk transfer solutions for unique risks in Africa.

THE MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR
Message from the Managing Director
As I reflect on the MUKFIN journey, I am filled with immense gratitude and optimism for the great future ahead. We are grateful for the tremendous support that the MUKFIN Group has received from our esteemed clients, business partners and stakeholders from various parts of the world. Our success is anchored on the strong foundations of trust and solid relationships with our business partners. We are optimistic of our calculated and steady growth, which is built on a clear strategy to embed intimate relationships with our key partners.
Our geographical footprint is testament to our commitment to serving the African market. From the humble beginnings of a single-room office in 2017, the company now operates from its double-story building in the classy business district of Ferndale. The company has expanded its physical presence by opening subsidiaries in Botswana in 2023 and Zambia in 2024. Meanwhile, our associate company, Skybridge Reinsurance Brokers, continues to position itself as a key player in the reinsurance space in Zimbabwe.
These achievements are not just milestones; they reflect the hard work, resilience, and dedication of our team. Our team is guided by the key principles of staying agile in a fast-changing world, striving for excellence in everything we do, and always putting our clients at the heart of all decisions. The MUKFIN philosophy is built around delivering the best service to our clients and reinsurers in a manner rooted in trust, dependability and customer-centricity. Our staff members form the pillar of strength for the company, they are unwavering in pursuing our mission through the agreed five strategic values of Agility, Excellence, Empathy, Integrity, and Professionalism.
We are recognised as a leading provider of current, unique, and locally relevant insurance and reinsurance technical training solutions on the African Continent. The MUKFIN team is consistently on the ground delivering expert training to our clients in the region. We strongly believe in empowering the youth in Africa as part of our corporate social responsibility (CSR) to all markets where we do business.
The MUKFIN motto, “Your Efficient (Re)insurance Broker, underpins our business culture, which supports our value proposition of customer-centricity and exceptional service. Our state-of-the-art IT operating system allows us to provide fast and efficient service in terms of turnaround times on contract documents, premium payments and claims settlement.
The world today is not without challenges. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed the world from a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) world to a FLUX (Fast, Uncharted, Liquid, and Experimental) environment. Several factors, including the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions, climate change, and emerging risks, like cyber-threats, are reshaping the risk landscape. These challenges present both challenges and opportunities to innovate and lead. By staying abreast with market developments and understanding the client’s evolving needs, MUKFIN is in a position to provide reliable risk advice and cost-effective (re)insurance solutions.
Looking ahead, our vision is clear: To be a trusted, leading insurance and reinsurance risk transfer platform. We aim to create more than transactional value for our clients. Our long-term ambition is to create a platform for risk transfer across the globe. We are committed to developing risk solutions that address the ever-changing needs of our clients, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the industry.
To our clients, partners, and stakeholders, thank you for your trust and support. Together, we will continue to push boundaries, embrace innovation, and set new standards of excellence.
