Corporate Profile

The Swan Group, one of the market leaders in the insurance sector in Mauritius, operates through Swan Insurance Company Limited for short term insurance business and The Anglo-Mauritius Assurance Society Limited for life assurance, pensions, actuarial and investment business.

A full range of insurance products and services has been developed over the years to serve the needs of corporate and individual clients.

The activities of the Group date back to 1854 on the incorporation of The Mauritius Fire Insurance Company Limited and 17 years later of the Colonial Fire Insurance Company Limited.  Swan Insurance Company Limited was incorporated in March 1955 to take over the activities of Mauritius Fire and Colonial Fire.

The Group caters for the insurance requirements of its clients in the region within its treaty capacities.

Investments are made in Mauritius and in the region in key sectors of activity, namely tourism, real estate, sugar, trade and financial services.

By securing the services of AON, a leading reinsurance broker, and a panel of global reinsurers, the Group has a worldwide access to reinsurance markets and is therefore capable of offering first class security to clients.
