About APA Insurance

As one of the leading general insurers in Kenya, APA Insurance caters to both individuals and corporates across the country  with its wide range of insurance solutions as well as services that go beyond insurance.

The flagship company, was formed after the merger of the general businesses of Apollo Insurance Company and Pan Africa Insurance. With a combined experience of over 100 years (Pan Africa – 1946 and Apollo –1977), APA has become the largest insurance firm in Kenya and the most innovative in product offering.

APA Insurance underwrites General Insurance risks such as Motor, Liability, Agriculture, Marine, Aviation, Property and Micro Insurance. We also underwrite Health Insurance, i.e. Corporate Health Insurance, Individual and Family Health Insurance.

We also provide a student’s personal accident cover to individuals, schools and organized groups on reasonable premium terms. Special group covers are available as personal accident covers which include work related occupational illness.

Motor Insurance

We know it’s handy to have someone else insured to drive your vehicle, and that is why we have made it easy to add a named driver to your comprehensive motor insurance policy.

By adding a named driver to your motor insurance – whether it’s your spouse, a family member or a friend – you will benefit from affordability because the driving will be shared, which can reduce the risk of accidents.  By adding them as a named driver, you ensure that they get the same level of cover as you.

Our Comprehensive motor insurance protects the insured against financial loss in the event that the motor vehicle is involved in an accident, burnt or stolen.

  • Third Party: This policy covers third party bodily injury and property damage arising out of use of motor vehicle.
  • Third party Fire & Theft cover extends to cover theft, fire, third party bodily injury and property damage.
  • Comprehensive cover covers third party liability and property damage to the vehicle i.e. damage arising out of fire, theft and accidental damage to the vehicle.

Agriculture Insurance

Area Yield Index Crop Insurance

This is a multi-peril micro-insurance product rolled out together with the Government of Kenya and other insurers.  It covers smallholder maize and wheat farmers against poor yields due to poor weather and natural catastrophes.

Index-based Weather Insurance

This cover compensates farmers for crop damage as a result of deficit or excesses in weather conditions such as temperature, sunlight, wind speed or rainfall resulting in losses during the length of the crop growth cycle up to physiological maturity.

Livestock Insurance
