Consortiums

At the Uganda Insurers Association (UIA), we recognize that some risks are too large or complex for a single insurer to underwrite alone. That's why we support and facilitate consortiums—co-insurance and risk-sharing frameworks that bring together multiple insurance companies to underwrite high-value or specialized projects.
