Cape Verde consists of 10 islands and five islets in the Atlantic Ocean some 455 km (280 miles) to the west of Senegal. The islands are of volcanic origin, and the volcano Pico de Fogo, on the island of Fogo, is still active.

The insurance market is small and the regulatory environment is stable. It is recognised that it requires improvement with indications given periodically that change is planned although in recent years there has been little such development. There are  only two insurers and though brokers, agents and employee-agents are all recognised by law, and some bancassurance is seen, a large majority of both life and non-life business is placed directly with the insurers.
