As Chairman of WAICA Re, I am proud to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to sustainability, both within our organisation and across the financial services sector. Rooted in the heart of Sierra Leone, WAICA Re has grown into a leading reinsurance provider, carrying with us a profound responsibility to embed sustainable practices in every aspect of our operations. Our expansion across Africa and beyond is guided by a vision to build a resilient, future-focused industry that not only delivers value but also fosters environmental and social well-being.
At WAICA Re, we recognise the pivotal role the insurance and reinsurance industry plays in driving economic stability and resilience. We are uniquely positioned to influence and lead positive change, not just by underwriting risks that support sustainable development, but also by managing our investments in ways that align with responsible, forward-thinking principles. Our actions reflect a deep commitment to creating long-term value for our clients, partners, and the communities we serve, while promoting a sustainable future for all.
WAICA Re is steadfast in our dedication to sustainable development and is committed to integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles into the core of our business operations. As proud signatories of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI), we recognise the critical role of sustainability in securing a resilient future for our planet and society.
Our pledge is to uphold global best practices in sustainability, ensuring that our expansion across continents is marked by responsible stewardship of resources and a proactive approach to climate change risks. We are dedicated to continuously improving our investment strategies and embedding ESG considerations into decision-making processes to foster long-term value creation for our stakeholders and the communities we serve.
In collaboration with our clients, we strive to provide insightful advice that encapsulates the importance of sustainability in risk management. WAICA Re is unwavering in our resolve to contribute to a sustainable economy, recognising that our actions today shape the world of tomorrow.
