Micro insuranceIt is one of the innovations of the Cima code with the birth of the book VII. It is characterized by :
Low premium and /or proceeds.
Simplicity of the coverage, underwriting formalities, of the management of contracts, of the statements of claims and the compensation victims.
Protection of low income people against specific risks enin consideration of payment of premiums or assessment
Drafting of contract in a simple, clear style that can be easily understandable by the target population and notwithstanding the provisions of the article7, the contract may be translated and marketed the local language of the target population.
Clauses related to the sending of registered letter are facultative, a mere letter.
The Insurer must pay the surrender value within the10 days under the condition of two months payment or when10% of the premiums planned in the contract have been paid.
Can be underwritten by :A legal entityA company for employeesA communauty for membersA natural person
Implementation of new mortality tables
The stakes of the reform: Provide Life insurance companies with adapted tools for life risks pricing in Africa Set up a life risk piloting culture with statistics specific to our environment.
The regulation 0006/CIMA/PCMA/PCE/2012 dated October 4th 2012 (which has a binding force since February 2013) relating to the implementation of new mortality tables leads to a review of the prices and change in the general conditions of contracts.
For Insurances in case death, the CIMA table replaces theTD regulatory table H.
For insurance in case of life, the CIMA table F replaces the regulatory table TV.
The coming into force of these tables impacts both on the prices and reserves :
Review of prices and change in the general conditions of contracts;
Processing of deviations (if any) of the reserves
For contracts in case of death, a decrease in the price from 6% to 35% and from10% to 35% for the provisions.
For mixed contracts, a decrease in the prices from 1 to 18% and a negligible impact on the provisioning.
For contracts in case of life, the CIMA table F will lead to an increase in the prices from 1 to 60% and more for termination allowance contracts. It is the same thing for provisions. The increase becomes more intense with the duration durée and seniority of the contracts
The new tables will enter into the pricing of new businesses and the renewal of annual contracts by automatic renewal starting from the effective date of the regulation relating to their adoption.
