KARACHI: DawnMedia will hold a conference on the current state and the future of the country’s insurance sector in Karachi on Dec 2.
The Insurance Summit 2026 will bring together policymakers, regulators, insurance providers, business leaders and industry experts to discuss the future of insurance, risk coverage and financial protection, according to a statement.
With insurance penetration in the country estimated at less than one per cent of gross domestic product, expanding financial protection remains a significant national challenge. “The summit will address key barriers to insurance growth, including limited awareness, accessibility and public trust, while exploring opportunities to strengthen coverage for individuals, families and businesses,” the statement said.
The agenda will cover key themes like the country’s insurance landscape and regulatory reforms; the future of insurance through digital innovation, microinsurance and climate-risk coverage; risk management and reinsurance; policyholder protection, claims and consumer trust; and the evolving insurance needs of businesses.
“Through dialogue, knowledge-sharing and cross-sector collaboration, the summit aims to identify the path towards an accessible and resilient insurance ecosystem in Pakistan,”the statement said.
The summit is a DawnMedia initiative, with the Federal Insurance Ombudsman as the principal partner. Supporting partners include TPL, Jubilee Life, Jubilee General, EFU Life and IGI Life, while knowledge partners include Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan and the Pakistan Business Council.
