global.insurers/directory

Tools

• fetch

  Fetch one record by an id returned from search ("insurer:<slug>", "group:<slug>", "country:<slug>", "former:<slug>"), e.g. "insurer:micronesia-century-insurance-company-ltd". Returns the record as text with its regulator, class, verification level and register source, the page URL to cite, and the dataset version and licence in metadata. Absence from the directory does not establish absence of a licence. Provided for ChatGPT deep research and company knowledge; for ordinary questions prefer get_insurer, get_group or get_country_summary.

  shallow
• get_country

  Get one country in Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America or North America: regulator (name, acronym, website, notes), currency, counts by class and ownership, verification status against the regulator register, market notes, and the full list of licensed insurers with register identifiers and source caveats. This complete result can be large. Prefer get_country_summary for market facts and list_insurers with country, limit and offset for bounded entity results.

  shallow
• get_country_summary

  Get compact market facts for one country: regulator, currency, counts, verification and market notes, without its insurer rows. Accepts a country slug or ISO alpha-2 code. Use list_insurers with country for paged entity records.

  shallow
• get_directory_info

  Get this edition’s dataset version, source dates, licence, coverage counts, endpoint URLs and filter vocabularies, plus compact country metadata. Use this to discover supported country, class, ownership, region and continent slugs before querying.

  shallow
• get_footprint

  Licensed footprint: which legal entity of an insurance group is licensed in which country, with collected branches, EEA freedom-of-services passporting and GLEIF parents. Pass exactly one group slug (from list_groups, e.g. "vig") for the country × entity matrix, or an insurer slug for that entity alone. Licence rows come from the directory registers; relationship enrichment comes from GLEIF and EIOPA. Null or empty enrichment means it has not been collected, not that no relationships exist.

  shallow
• get_group

  Get one insurance group by slug: home market, type, continents and countries covered and every licensed entity in the directory.

  shallow
• get_insurer

  Get one insurer by slug, including its parent group, class, regulator, source basis, register identifiers (LEI, national ID) where available, notes, sibling entities in the same group, and the reviewed profile (website, social links, founding year, stock-exchange listings with tickers, and Wikidata id) where one has been collected.

  shallow
• list_groups

  List insurance groups with licensed entities in two or more countries across Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America and North America, with their footprint.

  shallow
• list_iaigs

  List the Internationally Active Insurance Groups (IAIGs) in the IAIS public register with their group-wide supervisor and jurisdiction, and for each the directory groups, entities and countries it controls across Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America and North America.

  shallow
• list_insurers

  List licensed insurers with optional filters and bounded pages (25 by default, at most 200). Filter by continent ("africa", "europe", "asia-pacific", "south-america", "north-america"), country slug (e.g. "kenya", "france", "japan"), class slug (e.g. "life", "general-non-life", "reinsurer", "takaful-islamic", "not-stated-in-register"), group type slug (e.g. "pan-african-group", "pan-european-group", "foreign-multinational", "mutual-cooperative"), parent group slug or verification level. Country filtering fetches only that market's full insurer records.

  shallow
• list_regulators

  List the insurance supervisory authority for every covered country: name, acronym, website, currency, notes and the register source used for verification. Returns all matches unless limit or offset is supplied; when paging, limit defaults to 25 and is capped at 200.

  shallow
• resolve_former_name

  Resolve a company name that is no longer in use to the insurer listed today. Use this when a policy, certificate or older document names an insurer that does not appear in search_insurers — the company may have been renamed, merged or delisted. Returns what happened, when, and the current entity where one exists. A renamed, acquired, merged or transferred insurer keeps its licence, so its policies continue with the successor; only "failed" means the company failed.

  shallow
• search

  Search licensed insurers, insurance groups, countries and former company names across Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America and North America. Returns up to 20 results, each with an id to pass to fetch and the insurers.global page URL to cite. Provided for ChatGPT deep research and company knowledge; for ordinary questions prefer search_insurers, which returns slugs, record types and paging.

  shallow
• search_insurers

  Search licensed insurance companies, reinsurers, takaful operators and insurance groups across Africa, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America and North America by name. Returns matching insurers, countries and groups with their slugs and links.
