One of the leading underwriting firms in Nigeria, AXA Mansard, has been named as the General Insurance Company of the Year at the Almond Insurance Industry Awards held in Lagos recently.
The Chief Security Officer of AXA Mansard Insurance, Mr Adekunle Akinbowale, who received the award at a ceremony put together by the organisers, expressed the company’s appreciation for the recognition and support.
He noted that the award is another testimony to the relentless efforts of the underwriter team to ensure that AXA’s purpose of acting for human progress is experienced by every Nigerian.
Commenting on the award, the chief executive officer of AXA Mansard Insurance, Mr Kunle Ahmed, said that the recognition would spur the insurer to continue to do more for its customers and provide exemplary leadership for the industry, especially at a time like this that is beclouded by uncertainties.
“We are once again, humbled by this award as the General Insurance Company of the Year because it signals the level of confidence that customers have in us.
“It is another way customers have spoken that since we always put them first; they will always prefer us as well.
“We are aware that this is another challenge to do more. We do not take their trust for granted, but we accept the challenge to do more across all our business lines – General, Life, Health and Investments,” Mr Ahmed said.
The Almond Insurance Industry Awards was designed to promote the best practices in corporate management, leadership, governance, innovation, and sustainable growth within the insurance sector.
The annual event serves as a platform to acknowledge and celebrate the remarkable achievements of industry professionals.
