Before you buy from Old Mutual in Rwanda

  1. Check that the policy is issued by one of the companies above — the licensed entity, not only the brand.
  2. For motor cover, check the insurer on the National Bank of Rwanda's list of licensed insurers, and the broker on its list of licensed brokers, before you pay.
  3. Ask for the schedule and the exclusions in writing, and compare them with at least one other insurer.
  4. Keep in mind the claim rule that applies to every insurer: once the insurer admits liability it must pay within one month of all requirements being met and the amount agreed, and a rejection must be explained in writing within 10 working days (Law n° 030/2021, articles 122 and 123).
  5. If something goes wrong, complain to the insurer in writing first, then to the National Bank of Rwanda (INTUMWA chatbot, WhatsApp +250 791 700 721 or SMS 6005).
