We are delighted to be part of the 15th Annual Mineral Wealth Conference at Speke Resort Munyonyo, a two-day convention bringing together industry leaders and key stakeholders to explore opportunities shaping the future of Africa’s mining sector.
Themed “Beneath the Surface: Unlocking Africa’s Next Mining Powerhouse,” the conference highlights the importance of investment, innovation and strategic partnerships in unlocking Africa’s mineral wealth.
Speaking during a panel discussion yesterday, Andrew Makumbi, Ag. Managing Director, Old Mutual Insurance Uganda, emphasised the critical role of insurance in managing risks across the mining value chain, from exploration and machinery to investor protection and workers’ safety.
As Uganda advances its mineral and energy ambitions, effective risk management is fundamental to protecting investments, strengthening investor confidence and enabling sustainable growth. Insurance is an essential enabler of investment and resilience.
