An Insurance Broker is a specialist in Insurance and Risk Management.
Insurance brokers act on behalf of their clients and provide advice in the best interest of their clients. In Uganda to operate as an Insurance broker you must be a registered company, licensed by the Insurance Regulatory Authority of Uganda, to carry out the business of Insurance intermediary and Brokerage services and also be a member of the Insurance Brokers Association of Uganda.
