Foremost life insurer, African Alliance Insurance Plc, has developed an innovative self-service portal to ease seamless transactions between insurer and brokers.

This was disclosed at the Members Evening of the Nigerian Council of Registered Insurance Brokers, South-South Area Committee, held in Port Harcourt recently hosted by African Alliance Insurance.

Joyce Ojemudia, the firm’s Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, while addressing the body of brokers in the region said, “the self-service policy platform is customised for all brokers to buy end-to-end from the comfort of their offices. This is one of the ways we are embedding technology in our business just so we can achieve seamless service delivery and customer satisfaction while speeding up the underwriting process.”
