IPEC Commissioner calls for bold reforms as Insurance Symposium opens in Victoria Falls

Business Reporter 

Insurance and Pensions Commission (IPEC) Commissioner Dr Grace Muradzikwa has challenged industry stakeholders to deliver tangible reforms that rebuild public trust in the sector.

Speaking at the opening of the Insurance and Pensions Symposium in Victoria Falls this morning, Dr Muradzikwa urged stronger collaboration between regulators, policymakers, and the industry under the theme “Beyond Compliance: Delivering Value, Fairness, and Trust in Insurance and Pensions.”

“We expect that the discussions here are not going to end in this room, but would translate into real reforms, real decisions, and real impact,” she said.

Dr Muradzikwa emphasised that the sector extends far beyond financial products, describing it as essential to protecting lives, preserving dignity in retirement, managing risk in an uncertain world, and mobilising long-term capital for national development.

She called on delegates to align with the national development agenda, noting that the industry must be at the forefront of building the economy. Delegates were urged to be bold in their thinking, honest in their reflections, and deliberate in their actions.

The three-day symposium, which also celebrates 20 years of regulatory oversight, features discussions on cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, financial inclusion, and consumer protection.
