2. IRAQ AND THE LOCAL INSURANCE SECTOR
The operation of Iraq’s insurance sector is governed by the Insurance Business
Regulation Act of 2005 (IBR) thru “Diwan”, an independent body supervising policies
and procedures concerning the insurance industry. It was appropriately established to
guide the industry moving forward. Diwan’s objectives are to regulate and oversee the
insurance sector, to assure industry development, provide industry transparency,
protection of individuals and property and the accumulation and growth of national
savings in order to support economic development.
Iraq is widely considered as an emerging market with an untapped portfolio of
potential clients ranging from small, medium and large-scale companies. It’s market
however needs to be educated with the knowledge, awareness and interest of
insurance and on how it can benefit them and develop products accompanied by
unique service offerings.
