IIK is the voice of the Insurance profession and takes independent and credible positions on matters of concern to the profession.
Professional Recognition: Being an IIK member provides professional recognition. It demonstrates to colleagues, clients, and employers that you are a genuine insurance professional, not just someone “in insurance.”
The first and foremost benefit of membership is the professional recognition being a member of the Institute. Membership of IIK is recognized by your colleagues and clients, current or future employers and the community at large as evidence that you aren’t just “in Insurance”, but that you’re a genuine Insurance professional. Being a member of a professional body carries a degree of respectability when applying for jobs or presenting credentials to potential clients.
The institute is the only body in Kenya mandated to issue Insurance professional membership to Insurance professionals i.e. (AIIK & FIIK). Professional certification shows employers and clients that you are committed to your profession and are well-trained. It gives them confidence in your abilities.
Associate (AIIK) and Fellow (FIIK) members are eligible to serve the institute in any of its committees including the Executive Council and enjoy all the rights and privileges of membership i.e. voting rights.
The IIK Code is intended to enhance best business practice and ensure that insurance professionals exercise sound corporate governance. The Code defines the minimum acceptable standards of conduct and ethical behavior for the members of the Insurance Institute of Kenya and sets benchmark by which the conduct of insurance professionals may be assessed.
