Brokerslink partners with pan-African insurer

Brokers network Brokerslink has signed a three year strategic partnership agreement with pan-African insurance group Saham Finances.

Saham will increase its participation in Brokerslink’s current book of business in the region for property and casualty as well as accident and health insurance. In addition, the parties will work together to create new business opportunities.

Last year, Brokerslink created a specific Middle East and Africa management team led by Youness Rhallam, chief executive officer of Morocco-based broker Alpha Assurances, to drive expansion in these rapidly growing markets.

José Manuel Fonseca, chief executive officer of Brokerslink said: “To realise Brokerslink’s full potential in Africa and the Middle East we need to partners with the best insurers in the region.

“Saham has proven to be an excellent ally with an unbeatable knowledge of this often complicated market. With a three year strategic partnership now in place we can all focus on implementing initiatives that will come to fruition both now and in the future. The opportunities are very exciting.”

Raymond Farhat, managing director of Saham Finances, added: “Saham Finances and Brokerslink have a shared vision of growth and a belief in strong business ethics. This provides an excellent knowledge-based platform from which we can create opportunities that will benefit both organisations in the long term. We look forward to working even closer with Brokerslink in the future and driving innovation that will protect our client’s assets within Africa and the Middle East.”
