Insurers trimmed losses incurred on motor vehicle covers by Sh2.7 billion between July and September 2022, even as some players in the industry denied some low-model vehicles comprehensive covers.

Insurance Regulatory Authority’s (IRA) report on the industry during the third quarter of 2022 shows that while the general insurance business recorded a Sh2.26 billion loss during the three months, losses associated with covers issued to motor vehicles reduced from Sh7.3 billion to Sh4.6 billion.
