The South African Special Risks Insurance Association (Sasria) expects claims related to the unrest in July to amount to R20 billion, with 10% of the amount to be paid out by the end of this week.
Following the riots, the insurance company says over 95% of all registered insurance claims are being attended to.
“Currently, there [have] been concerted efforts to settle all small claims, while interim payments for large claims are being made at the same time,” Sasria said in a statement.
“On small claims, Sasria’s agent companies have been hard at work, settling and paying claims up to R1 million.”
The group adds that once the process of quantifying claims and the finalisation of the work done by loss adjustors is complete, it is estimated that claims would reach between R19 billion and R20 billion.
According to Sasria MD Cedric Masondo: “By the end of the week, we would have paid R2 billion between us and agent companies.
“Our target is to settle all valid small- and medium sized claims in the next six weeks.”
Interim funds
As business owners work towards restoring what they have lost, Sasria said its clients have been using interim funds to remove debris and clean up where damage occurred. However, it noted that the rebuilding of damaged infrastructure for large companies is going to take a long time, and it therefore aims to “engage all clients on the journey of seeing their business recover”.
“The extent of damage and the destruction is big,” said Masondo. “We would like to thank our clients for their cooperation. We ask for patience and we can assure all our clients that we are working hard with our agent companies to settle claims as soon as possible, while working towards a meaningful contribution [to] the rebuilding of our economy.”
Masondo praised the response Sasria has received from reinsurers, noting their prompt response and upfront payment of reinsurance funds in certain instances, thus helping the government insurer to avoid any liquidity issues.
