Roots of Excellence

SONARWA S.A. established as the first insurance company in Rwanda, laying the groundwork for the nation's financial security.

This marked the beginning of a new era for financial security and institutional growth in the region.

2000

Dedicated Division

Started as a specialized division within SONARWA S.A. to focus on the growing needs of life assurance and pension management.

This transition allowed for a highly targeted approach to managing complex life products.

2011

Independent Entity

Became an independent registered entity in January 2011, separating Life/Risk products from Long Term Savings as per new regulations.

The split drastically improved operational efficiency and focus.

2015

Pension Law Adaptation

Paved the way for the New Pension law, enabling us to manage Occupational Pension Schemes and Personal Retirement Saving Accounts.

We quickly integrated the new frameworks to provide compliant and robust saving plans.

2017

Sole Shareholder (RSSB)

The Rwanda Social Security Board (RSSB) became the sole shareholder, bringing unparalleled experience in pension scheme management.

This partnership cements our long-term financial stability and commitment to our clients.
