Sri Lanka:IRCSL launches insurance awareness programmes

| 22 Jul 2026

The Insurance Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (IRCSL), in collaboration with the Insurance Association of Sri Lanka (IASL), will conduct awareness programmes across towns and cities in Sri Lanka.

The regulator plans to conduct the next round of programmes in the towns of Kurunegala and Kuliyapitiya under the national theme - Insurance for all: For a secure future. The initiative aims to improve public awareness of insurance, strengthen financial literacy, and encourage greater insurance inclusion among communities across Sri Lanka.

The awareness programmes will bring together a broad spectrum of participants, including public sector officials, business representatives, bankers, university students, Small and Medium Enterprise representatives, and members of the general public. The sessions will provide practical knowledge on the importance of insurance, policyholder rights and responsibilities, available insurance products, and the role of insurance in protecting individuals, families, and businesses against unforeseen financial risks.

This awareness campaign forms part of IRCSL's broader national strategy to increase insurance penetration and promote a culture of financial preparedness throughout the country. It also supports the Commission's ongoing efforts to enhance consumer confidence and improve financial resilience through education and awareness.

The initiative is being organised with the active support of the Insurance Association of Sri Lanka (IASL) and other industry stakeholders such as Sri Lanka Insurance Brokers Association, Sri Lanka Insurance Institute etc. reflecting the industry's collective commitment to expanding public access to insurance knowledge and services.
