The chairman reaffirmed the company’s commitment to providing unparalleled security to its customers, noting that the company was able to successfully navigate the stormy macroeconomic headwinds in 2023 by deploying cost optimisation initiatives and leveraging its technical and management expertise to deliver Profit Before Tax(PBT)of N3.2 billion and Profit After Tax (PAT) of N3.1 billion, indicating a growth rate of 344 per cent and 400 per cent respectively.
“The insurance service result also grew by 18 per cent to N19.8 billion from N16.8 billion in 2022. This growth permeated across the business lines with the Non-life and Life business achieving double-digit growth of 19 per cent and 17 per cent respectively, from N9.5 billion and N7.3 billion in 2022 to N11.3 billion and N8.6 billion in 2023.
