Zimnat Lion is one of the largest short-term insurers in the country and the most comprehensive source of short term insurance cover. They are in the business of accepting insurable risks from clients using established techniques to spread the risks and paying for economic loss sustained when a loss materializes.

Zimnat Lion was incorporated in 1974 as Rhodesia National Farmers and General Insurance Company Limited. The company, as currently constituted, is a result of the merger of Zimnat Insurance Company Ltd with Lion of Zimbabwe Insurance Company Ltd, which created the largest short-term insurer in Zimbabwe then.

TA Holdings Ltd has a 100% stake in Zimnat Lion through its 100% holdings in Freecor Holdings Ltd and Bude Holdings Ltd. Freecor and Bude own 41,29% and 13,34% of Zimnat Lion, respectively. Its current constitution is a result of its merger with Lion Insurance Company Limited in January 1999, with TA as the major shareholder. In 2001 it was successfully listed onto the ZSE, as Zimnat Lion Insurance Company Limited. Zimnat Lion went on to be delist on the 29th of July 2009 after TA successfully bought out all minority shareholders through a share swap.
