Commissioner - Insurance
Although data presented only pertains to life insurance/family takaful business and non-life
insurance/general takaful business, insurance intermediaries also form essential part of the
insurance industry in Pakistan. Insurance intermediaries can essentially be referred to persons
which facilitate/complement/assist insurers in the overall insurance policy life cycle, which would
ideally start from prospecting an insurance sale and conclude on payment of claim to the
policyholder. Insurance intermediaries include:
• Insurance Agents:
a) Captive Agency Sales Force Network (Natural Persons); and
b) Corporate Insurance Agents (Banks, Telco’s and other entities in corporate structure)
• Insurance Brokers;
• Insurance Surveyors & Authorised Surveying Officers; and
• Third Party Administrators for Health Insurance.
Pakistan Reinsurance Company is playing its part in the insurance industry of Pakistan as the only
reinsurance company, offering reinsurance to the general insurance sector. The Commission in
2018 authorized PRCL to also conduct window re-takaful operations
