Our Heritage :

RM Insurance was born out of the merger between the Old Mutual Fire and General Insurance Company (OMFGIC) and the Royal Insurance Company in 1983. OMFGIC was the non-life company of Old Mutual whilst the Royal was a branch of Royal Insurance plc, a major UK insurance company. Both shareholders celebrated their 150th anniversaries in 1995 establishing their credibility in the insurance business.
In 2003 RM Insurance merged with CGU Insurance Company (an entity arising out of the merger between Commercial Union and General Accident) to become one of the biggest short-term insurance companies in Zimbabwe. RM Insurance offers a variety of insurance products and services that suit diverse short-term insurance needs
