Congo will also chair, during the term of Minister Calixte Nganongo, the Committee of Experts of the CIMA Council of Ministers.
Among the topics on the agenda of this meeting are the new regulations on money laundering and the fight against terrorism, as well as the appeals lodged by certain companies against the decisions of the Regional Insurance Control Commission. One of these decisions relates to the withdrawal of all authorisations, and the other to the cancellation of a letter...
Responding to the question on CIMA's health, Minister Calixte Nganongo's host was pleased with the resilience shown by the actors of this institution during the Coronavirus health crisis. They have indeed set up mechanisms to remotely manage the signing of insurance contracts, as well as the payment of benefits in this rapidly evolving sector.
As a reminder, the Treaty establishing CIMA was signed in 1992, while its operationalisation started in 1995. The 14 member countries are: Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Mali, Niger, Gabon, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Togo, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau and Comoros.
