Turaco, Africa’s leading tech-enabled affordable insurance company, today announced the acquisition of MicroEnsure Ghana, a pioneering microinsurance company from MIC Global. Under the deal, MicroEnsure will rebrand as Turaco Ghana and retain the expertise of the existing team and leadership. The acquisition is part of Turaco’s long-term vision to provide simple and accessible insurance to 1 billion people.

The expansion increases Turaco’s operational markets to four–Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, and Ghana–and active policies by 25%. New and existing customers will benefit from improved tech-driven processes, which will reduce the turnaround time of claims paid out and optimise service offerings. 

The acquisition will also provide an opportunity for Turaco to bolster partnerships with incumbents and develop a strategic reinsurance partnership with MIC Global, one of the leading micro-reinsurance businesses in the world.
