A simple idea to help build a better insurance
Founded in October 2017 and headquartered in Nairobi, Kakbima is the brainchild of passionate people with a mission to re-imagine and help build a better insurance. We set out to provide tools that help industry players provide the kind of insurance experience that fits the way we all live and operate today; make insurance instant, honest and delightful anywhere, anytime for everyone.
Kakbima was founded on the principle that technology should drive the insurance transaction and insurance should be bought, not sold. That is why we have brought numerous insurance purchase and management processes into the digital space.
Meet Kakbima
We’re an insurtech that provides tools to connect insurers, distribution partners, and customers to transform the way insurance is bought, managed and sold. At the center of the ecosystem is our insurance management and distribution platform that removes the barriers to flexible products development and distribution channels helping more new businesses get started, expedite growth for existing companies, and increases global consumer coverage.
We have broken down insurance functions into individual business services allowing ease of maintenance and independent deployment of features. Insurance distributors can easily put up their products which will be accessible to every individual who interacts with our platform or integration partners looking for insurance.
The platform’s features combine Customer Relationship Management (CRM), products (Motor and Motorcycle fully supported), policy, claims management, quotations automation, premium payments, and much more in a single, integrated platform, enabling our users focus on what matters.
The potential of the insurance industry
Over the past decade, overall global insurance penetration; defined as insurance premiums/GDP, has remained relatively low. With in life penetration declining while in non-life insurance penetration has increasing sparked by medical insurances’ growth.
Despite this, global insurance penetration is about 3.35% for the life segment and 3.88% for the non-life segment.
Regulatory complexity, a byzantine global insurance system, and a shortage of diverse insurance products with better distribution channels are constraining the growth of insurance.
Removing the barriers to flexible products development and distribution channels helps more new businesses get started, expedites growth for existing companies, and increases global consumer coverage.
