ACAPS takes part in the IAIS Annual Conference in Hong Kong

The Chairman of the Supervisory Authority of Insurance and Social Welfare (ACAPS), Mr Abderrahim Chaffai, is taking part in the Annual Conference of the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), which is being held in Hong Kong from 9 to 13 November 2026.

This meeting is a major event for the international community of insurance supervisors, providing a forum for discussion on current issues and developments in the sector, as well as on global supervisory priorities.

ACAPS’s participation is part of its ongoing active involvement in the IAIS’s governance bodies and technical structures. In particular, the Authority contributes as the representative of the MENA region on the Executive Committee, as well as on the Audit and Risk Committee and the Implementation and Evaluation Committee. It also participates in the Association’s work in support of emerging markets and developing economies (EMDE).

This year’s event holds particular significance for Morocco, which will host the IAIS committee meetings, General Assembly and Annual Conference in 2027 under the auspices of ACAPS. A dedicated stand in Rabat, the next host city, provides an opportunity to promote this event and showcase Morocco to the international community of insurance supervisors.

Through this participation, ACAPS reaffirms its commitment to the work of the IAIS and its determination to contribute actively to strengthening international cooperation in the field of insurance supervision.
