Competition aspects in regulation of the insurance industry in kenya
Abstract
This thesis is primarily concerned with the interplay between competition law and
regulation of the insurance sector in Kenya. The approach of the study is to interrogate
the role of insurance regulation and how it relates with the theory of competition in a free
market.
The study thus undertakes a critical appraisal of the regulatory framework for the
insurance industry in Kenya while juxtaposing it with the legislative regime and
provisions on competition. Eventually the study reveals that the regulation of the
insurance industry in Kenya is inherently weak thus failing to stimulate competition in
the industry.
The study therefore calls for the establishment of a regulatory framework in the insurance
industry that is efficient and able to stimulate competition in the industry in a manner that
will stir growth.
