About the Forum

The Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF), in collaboration with Central Bank of Bahrain (CBB) and Solidarity Insurance Company, are set to host Bahrain's first-ever Insurance Awareness forum.

The event will bring together all relevant national stakeholders including the regulator, insurance industry leaders, relevant members of governmental entities and bodies such as the Ministry of Education, Ministry of interior, Ministry of Justice. Additionally, the forum will ensure adequate representation by the main stakeholder, the customer by inviting policyholders from the personal and commercial lines insurances to get insight about their experience with insurance and their unmet expectations. The forum primarily aims to have an inclusive, candid and reflective discussion on the challenges associated with raising insurance awareness and the reasons for the negative public perception of insurance. The second objective is to conclude with a set of recommendations or action plan along with owners to achieve effective insurance awareness to the best interest of the policyholder, the insurers and the society at large.
