Delmege Insurance Brokers has reaffirmed its position as Sri Lanka’s No. 1 insurance broker for the third consecutive year, 2023, 2024 and 2025, according to the Insurance Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (IRCSL).

With a Gross Written Premium (GWP) of Rs. 6.3 billion and a 9.37% overall market share, Delmege Insurance Brokers secured the leading position among 83 registered insurance brokers in Sri Lanka.

The achievement reflects the consistency, expertise and commitment of the Delmege team, together with the trust placed in the company by its clients, insurance and reinsurance partners.
