It is part of the company\u2019s initiatives to support needy people,\u201d he said. Prime Insurance also committed to provide Rwf 20,000 monthly support to Nyirabakiga for the period of one year effective from July 2019.    <\/p>\n<p>Prime Insurance was established in 1995 as Cogear Ltd, a licensed general and life insurance company authorized by the National Bank of Rwanda (BNR). In December 2011, Cogear created Prime Life Assurance Ltd to comply with the regulator\u2019s directive to separate its general and non-life insurance businesses, and also to expand its business to provide long-term (life) insurance policies. The regulator authorized Prime Life Assurance Ltd in May 2012. The company was rebranded into Prime Insurance Ltd and Prime Life Insurance Ltd respectively when Greenoaks Global Holdings acquired the company in 2014.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document
