About the firm

The first insurance consulting company licensed by the Insurance Regulatory Unit in Kuwait, established in 2019 to meet the market’s need for independent insurance advice.

What we do

Kuwait Insurance House Consulting is one of the leading Kuwaiti corporations offering insurance consulting services at the highest levels of quality, according to local and international standards. The company was established in 2019 to meet the market’s need for insurance consulting solutions available to both organisations and individuals, supporting its clients to achieve their objectives and continue their journey of growth and progress.

A consultant is not a broker and not an insurer. We do not place cover, we do not carry risk, and we take no commission from any insurance company. What we sell is the opinion — which means the opinion has nothing riding on it except whether it turns out to be right.

That independence is what makes the work useful. When we say a wording should be amended, a limit is too low, or a quotation is better than it looks, there is no placement behind the advice and no revenue attached to the outcome. The client is free to act on the recommendation with whichever broker or insurer they choose.

Our team is fully specialised, with combined experience exceeding 100 years in the insurance field — experience gained on both sides of the table, which is what allows us to read a policy the way the insurer who drafted it reads it.

How an engagement runs

Every engagement runs the same four stages, whatever its size. The deliverable is always written, and it always names the reasoning behind each recommendation.

  1. Scope

    We agree what is being examined and what the study has to answer, in writing, before any work starts. Fees are fixed against that scope.

  2. Study

    We gather the policies, valuations, loss history and contracts, and examine them against the exposure the business actually carries.

  3. Report

    You receive a written report: what the current arrangement does, where it falls short, what should change, and what each change is worth.

  4. Follow-through

    We stay with the recommendation while it is implemented — through your broker, your insurer, or a tender we help you specify.
