Full circle: What a year of change means for Rwanda's inclusive insurance moment

From winning the Luxembourg Award for Inclusive Finance to hosting the sector’s flagship conference, Rwanda’s inclusive insurance journey has come full circle. Eleven months after Radiant Yacu was recognised on the global stage in Luxembourg, Kigali is preparing to welcome ICII 2026 and the international inclusive insurance community. This article looks at what has changed over the past year – from Radiant Yacu’s efforts to expand digital distribution and reach more customers, to the lasting impact of ICII 2025 in Quito, where inclusive insurance gained a stronger place in Ecuador’s financial inclusion agenda. As Rwanda takes centre stage, explore what its progress, ambitions and challenges reveal about the future of inclusive insurance – and why the real test begins after the conference ends.
