SATIB’s birthplace! We are proud to have been the only broker to insure Rhino’s and other game from the world renowned Umfolozi / Hluhluwe Game Auctions in the early 90’s. A project that no doubt saw the preservation of a species so sadly under major threat today.
As specialist risk management consultants to the wildlife and conservation industries of Southern Africa for the past 21 years, SATIB provides insurance support to corporate, private and government sector clients for the purposes of risk management of protected, endangered and exotic species of wildlife, as well as common plains game.

SATIB insurance programmes provide comprehensive cover for risks associated with wildlife breeding and conservation in Southern Africa.
Cover is available for all risks of mortality as well as for specific perils such as transit, spread of disease or stress related illness resulting in mortality. We have the capacity for very high valued game.
