Brokerslink sets up new regional steering team targeting African growth opportunities

Brokerslink, a global network of independent brokers, has established a new regional team to help drive growth and opportunities for its partners and affiliates in Africa.

The steering team includes representatives from Cameroon, Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa and is headed up by Tiago Mora, new regional manager, Africa.

Brokerslink, which is currently represented in 32 countries in Africa, said the team will work to identify opportunities to support their business growth both domestically and internationally as well as providing its global broker network with access to local market expertise.

The development of a regional steering team in Africa follows the recent appointment of three new African affiliates to the Brokerslink network.

“Africa is not a single market and our new team reflects this fact," said Tiago. "We believe that to be able to maximise the opportunities that exist across the continent it is essential to have access to local experts who understand their individual markets cultural and regulatory landscapes.

"It is our aim to create a truly pan-African network that will support all our affiliates across the continent as well as provide more opportunities for the wider global network and our insurance partners to develop their business in the region."
