INTRODUCING FEMI JOHNSON & COMPANY LIMITED
FEMI JOHNSON & COMPANY LTD (referred to in the industry- as ‘FJC’) is Nigeria’s foremost firm of
Incorporated Insurance Brokers.
Incorporated on the 5th of August 1970 as a Private Limited Liability Company, the firm operates
under the provisions of the Nigerian Insurance Act of 2003.
A corporate member of the Nigerian Corporation of Registered Insurance Brokers, Femi Johnson &
Company Limited (having provided 2 Past Presidents and Regular Council Membership) remains the
leading firm of Insurance Brokers in Nigeria today with a history of forty years of providing innovative
and dedicated Insurance and Risk Management solutions and services to our clients.
HISTORY
The firm commenced operations on the 1st of January 1970 with an authorized and paid share capital
of N 2,000 and has grown to become the model insurance broking firm in Nigeria, and the West
African Sub Region handling premiums in excess of N1.4 billion annually with a current paid-up share
capital of N100 million.
From inception, the firm benefited immensely from the dynamism and foresight of its founder, the Late
Mr. Femi Johnson (FCIB) (1934 – 1987), widely regarded as one of Africa’s finest Insurance Broking
practitioners with an international repute for adherence to the highest standards of Professional
Practice, Ethics and above all Integrity; principles which remain the guiding tenets of our firm.
‘FJC’ was the first firm of Insurance Brokers in Nigeria to fully computerize her operations in 1978
and, ever since, has remained in the forefront of setting industry standards for development, adoption
and deployment of the most up-to-date technology in the delivery of quality broking services to its
clients.
FJC currently has Professional Indemnity cover up to NGN 800,000,000 which clearly stands out
within the Nigeria Insurance Broking industry.

Surety
Marsh's Surety Practice employs over 210 specialists who provide consulting and brokerage services to our
clients. The practice consists of three specialties: construction surety, commercial security and international
surety.
Surety is a credit instrument known as a bond guarantee. It is not insurance. A firm called a "surety
company" guarantees that a business corporation called a "principal" will carry out an obligation to a third
party, called an "obligee." Two examples of such obligations include:
• A contractor constructing a site according to the contract specifications for the owner; and
• A firm supplying goods within a predetermined time frame to a third party.
If the principal does not fulfill its bonded obligation, the obligee can make a claim demanding that the surety
company satisfy the obligation or pay the bond penalty. The surety company has the right to reimbursement
from the principal in the case of a paid loss or claim.
Trade Credit
Marsh's Trade Credit Practice develops solutions tailored to clients' individual credit exposures. Clients can
choose to cover their entire portfolio, or a select group of their largest customers.
As companies have expanded and globalised over the past 20 years, many have found that using trade
credit insurance to protect accounts receivables from unforeseen losses due to non payment can be critical to
their success. Marsh's Trade Credit Practice helps companies to operate through unpredictable economic
cycles by providing solutions to manage receivables' risks and a wide range of other trade finance issues.
Programme Highlights
Trade credit insurance can help a company protect accounts receivable from losses caused by insolvency,
protracted default or political events.
Political Risk
Marsh's Political Risk Practice specialises in advising corporations on international risk mitigation. We
offer consulting services to assist risk and finance managers in determining effective political risk
management strategies.
In a world full of political uncertainty, mitigation of political risk is a significant factor in the success of
overseas projects, investments and contracts. By obtaining coverage against possible losses resulting from
political actions or inaction by the host government, more focus can be placed on measures to increase
In addition to traditional political risk insurance programs, risk transfer strategies have become increasingly more flexible
and can be adapted to better suit the needs of our clients. They can be channeled through captive
management companies, special purpose vehicles or can be used by financial institutions to mitigate the
political risk in their portfolio of emerging market assets. Through creativity and flexibility, the Political Risk
group has placed difficult risks and developed customised solutions to complex client issues.
Our placement and service teams are based across the globe and in Africa we have a particularly strong
team available to clients.
Professional Liability
Professional liability has become the "products liability" of the service sector. Professional liability coverage
can protect against liability and help defray the cost of defence following a claim for an error, omission or
negligence in the performance of professional services.
Newer insurance policies also provide coverage for privacy violations and breaches of computer security.
Companies that view their exposures as either manufacturing or product-oriented may be surprised to find
themselves exposed to professional liability risks through outsourcing, online commerce and intellectual
property issues.
And because professional liability risks are complex and extensive, identifying and quantifying these liabilities
requires a high degree of expert scrutiny. That's why, in addition to coverage specialists, Marsh employs
attorneys, economists and actuaries to assess a company's exposure from several different vantage points.
Evolving exposures can be anticipated and risk transfer solutions designed to fit your needs. Our teams of
experts throughout the world are dedicated to understanding specialised businesses like yours, industry
best practices are shared, applied and refined to continually create new business solutions.
Through constant global communication, our intellectual capital forms a worldwide network of information
sharing, which ensures that our professionals remain current on business issues affecting the major
industries in which they specialise, including:
• Banking, Investment Banking and Broker/Dealers
