Insurance firms are eying a Sh17 billion windfall from January 1 when a new law that compels importers to buy policy from local payers takes effect.
Industry estimates show that such a requirement will push marine cargo insurance premiums handled by Kenyan underwriters from Sh2.9 billion last year to over Sh20 billion.
