Fédération Marocaine de l'Assurance

What Fédération Marocaine de l'Assurance does

Fédération Marocaine de l'Assurance (FMA) is a professional industry association — not a commercial enterprise — that brings together all 25 insurance and reinsurance companies operating in Morocco, including major multinationals (AXA Morocco, Allianz Morocco, Sanlam Morocco) and domestic leaders (Wafa Assurance, RMA, MAMDA, MCMA, SCR Maroc, Atlanta Sanad, Takafulia, La Marocaine Vie). Founded on a collegial governance model controlled by its members through a General Assembly and Executive Committee led by President Mohamed Hassan BENSALAH and General Manager Salaheddine AJI, FMA's mandate is to defend members' professional interests, represent the sector before public authorities (notably ACAPS), improve professional standards, coordinate cross-insurer relationships, and disseminate statistical and regulatory intelligence about the Moroccan insurance market.

FMA's operational portfolio spans three layers: (1) sector data infrastructure — annual and semi-annual Key Figures (Chiffres Clés) and Highlights (Faits Marquants) publications, plus the Le Courrier de l'Assurance newsletter — capturing premiums, life/non-life splits, and reinsurance flows; (2) cross-insurer professional agreements and digital infrastructure — including CID (Convention d'Indemnisation Directe) and CICA (bodily injury compensation) agreements, the CNSS and CNOM third-party payment conventions, and the Econstat Pro mobile app (deployed on accident investigators' phones under CNDP authorization A-W-250/2022) that digitizes the friendly accident report; and (3) a credentialing and training ecosystem run jointly with CFPA, IFPASS Paris, INSEA, UIR, UH2C, and ESCA/ESA Paris, producing DPMA, DPCA, BTSA, and actuarial diplomas.

FMA is funded through membership dues from its 25 member companies (pricing not publicly disclosed) and does not sell insurance products or distribute to end consumers directly; member insurers handle distribution through agents, brokers, and direct sales. The organization is headquartered at 154 Boulevard d'Anfa, Casablanca, with ~9 senior operational staff covering administration, finance, technical regulation, communications, anti-fraud, maritime, statistical databases, and IT. Recent strategic activity centers on regulatory coordination: the 2025 tripartite anti-corruption convention with ACAPS and INPPLC, and the 2025-2026 activation of catastrophic event coverage for flood-affected provinces.

Direct peers

• Gesamtverband der Deutschen Versicherungswirtschaft (GDV): GDV is the umbrella association of German private insurers. Comparable to FMA in serving as the central representative body with data-collection, lobbying, and member-service functions for the national insurance industry.
• Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC): IBC is the national trade association for Canada's private insurers, focused on advocacy, industry data, fraud prevention, and consumer education. Mirrors FMA's mission of sector representation and member services in a national market.
• Association of British Insurers (ABI): ABI represents UK insurance companies and serves as the collective voice of the sector. Like FMA, it consolidates industry statistical data, lobbies with regulators, and develops professional standards on behalf of member insurers.
• Unión Española de Entidades Aseguradoras y Reaseguradoras (UNESPA): UNESPA represents Spanish insurance and reinsurance companies. Closely comparable to FMA in scope: industry statistics, lobbying, professional conventions, and sector representation with Spanish regulators.
• Fédération Française de l'Assurance (FFA): FFA is the national professional federation representing insurance and reinsurance companies operating in France. Directly comparable to FMA as a sector-wide trade body providing industry representation, statistics, training, and professional conventions.
• Fédération Tunisienne des Sociétés d'Assurances (FTUSA): The Tunisian insurance federation, serving as the Maghreb-region peer of FMA. Both represent and coordinate national insurance and reinsurance companies in a similar North African regulatory environment.
• Insurance Europe: Pan-European federation of national insurance associations. Directly comparable as a higher-tier trade body of which national federations like FMA are member constituents, providing advocacy, data, and cross-border coordination for the European insurance industry.
• Insurance Association of South Africa (SAIA): SAIA represents short-term and life insurers in South Africa, providing collective advocacy, member services, and consumer education. Closely parallels FMA in operating as the unified industry voice in a single national market.

Others

• National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC): While NAIC is a US state-regulator coordination body (not an industry trade association), it serves as a useful comparator for how insurance industry coordination, statistical reporting, and convention-setting functions are organized at scale — a model benchmark for FMA's role with ACAPS.

Broad incumbents

• General Arab Insurance Federation (GAIF): GAIF is the pan-Arab insurance industry federation. Comparable to FMA in aggregating and representing insurers but operating regionally across multiple MENA jurisdictions, of which FMA and its Moroccan members are constituents.
