Issued by the Malawi Registrar of Financial Institutions under the Insurance Act, 2010, this directive mandates all licensed insurance companies and license applicants to establish a comprehensive Risk Management Framework tailored to their operational scale and complexity. Insurers must appoint a dedicated Risk Management Function, develop and annually review a Board-approved Risk Management Strategy covering operational, financial, and strategic risks, and submit a signed risk declaration alongside their audited annual statements. Non-compliance triggers administrative penalties up to K500,000 and regulatory sanctions including dividend prohibitions, operational suspensions, or license cancellation to ensure prudent policyholder protection and corporate governance.
