Insurance professionals have been challenged to collaborate effort to reposition the insurance profession and rebrand the industry in such a way that narratives streaming from the industry can be better understood by all.
This position to improve the picture of insurance was moved today by the Commissioner for Insurance Mr. Olusegun Ayo Omosehin at the investiture of Mrs Yetunde Ilori as the 52 President of the Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria CIIN in Lagos. He said the call has become germane due to the emerging realities and developments at the global and national levels.
“We should be mindful of the perception of the insurance profession by the public and be deliberate in putting our narrative across,” he stated.
He speaks more, “As we deliberate this momentous occasion, it is important to reaffirm our collective commitment to promoting a robust, resilient, strong and stable insurance industry that contributes to the economic stability and growth of Nigeria.”
According to him the position of National Insurance Commission on market growth is clear, the Commission he stated, is committed to aligning the insurance sector with the renewed hope agenda of the government and the ambitious goal of growing the Nigerian economy to $1trn by 2030. “At NAICOM we view the institute as one of our veritable partners in the development of the much needed skilled-professional in the course of achieving this goal.”
He also acknowledged the relentless pursuit of excellence of Ilori which the CFI remarked has made her the perfect choice at this critical time to lead the Institute to new heights, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, growth and innovation.
