The Zanzibar Insurance Corporation (ZIC) is a state-owned enterprise established by the Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar. Despite its island origins, ZIC has grown into a formidable national insurance powerhouse, maintaining a highly robust presence and significant market share across the Tanzanian mainland, offering both life and comprehensive general insurance products. ZIC is deeply integrated into the maritime, tourism, and aviation sectors. They provide massive underwriting capacity for marine hull and cargo logistics, ensuring the safe transit of goods across the Indian Ocean. Furthermore, ZIC offers heavily tailored insurance packages for luxury resorts, tour operators, and commercial properties, mitigating the specific risks associated with the East African hospitality industry. The corporation is widely respected for its financial stability and sovereign backing. In recent years, ZIC has undergone a massive modernization drive, streamlining its claims processing and rolling out digital portals that allow retail customers to purchase motor and health insurance remotely, significantly boosting insurance penetration in the country.
