First Africa Captive Conference set for take-off
The inaugural Africa Captive Conference is to take place on 12 November 2026, at the Bryanston Country Club, Johannesburg.
In a statement on LinkedIn Oliver Schofield, founder & chief executive of RISCS CWC, co-founder Lignum Risk Partners and head of captive & alternative risk transfer at Principal Re, said: “For decades, many organisations have approached insurance as an annual purchasing exercise. That conversation is changing. Today's leading organisations are asking a different question: Can risk financing become a source of competitive advantage?
“Beyond Insurance: The Africa Captive Conference is a new executive conference designed for CFOs, risk managers, board leaders, insurance brokers and underwriters who are rethinking how risk is financed.”
Schofield said that the conference will explore how captive structures are helping organisations:
- Improve capital efficiency
- Strengthen organisational resilience
- Enhance governance and Board oversight
- Optimise cash flow and capital allocation
- Create long-term enterprise value
The Africa Captive Conference has been organised by OLEA Insurance Solutions Africa, RISCS CWC, and the Southern Africa-Canada Chamber of Commerce.
Exclusive media partners are Captive Review and Captive International.
