Heirs Insurance Group, United Capital Partner on Self-Care, Wealth Event for Ambitious Women

Heirs Insurance Group, Nigeria’s fastest-growing insurance group, and United Capital Plc, a leading Pan-African investment bank and financial services group, recently hosted the Yoga and Money Meet Up, an exclusive wellness and financial empowerment event for ambitious women.

The event, which was held in Lagos, offered a curated experience combining guided yoga and stress management sessions with expert-led conversations on insurance, investment and asset protection. The event reinforced Heirs Insurance Group’s and United Capital’s commitment to making financial wellness relevant and accessible to Nigerian women.

Speaking on the initiative, Ifesinachi Okoli-Okpagu, Chief Marketing Officer at Heirs Insurance Group, underscored the strong link between insurance and wellness.

“Self-care is not just about indulgence; it is about making deliberate choices that safeguard one’s physical, mental, and financial well-being – and insurance is fundamental to that. For many women juggling careers, businesses, and family, this event addresses a significant pain-point: how we protect our assets while still juggling life.”

She introduced HerMotor insurance plan, designed for ambitious women who need more than just insurance. The unique product offers comprehensive motor coverage against accidents, fire, theft, and other unforeseen incidents that cause loss to the policyholder’s car. An added benefit is the 24/7 emergency roadside assistance for female car owners during car breakdowns arising from accidents or mechanical faults.

The first-of-its-kind solution in the industry is delivered in partnership with AA Rescue, and includes a robust reward programme, where customers can access discounts from spas, wellness programmes, and more.

Dr. Odiri Oginni, Managing Director, United Capital Asset Management, added that the collaboration reflects a shared commitment to women’s empowerment.

“Empowerment is at the core of what we do, and co-creating on an initiative that directly addresses the financial realities facing Nigerian women further emphasises this. We recognise that financial independence and personal wellness are deeply interconnected, and by creating opportunities that bring both together, we are reinforcing our commitment to empowering women to confidently pursue and achieve their dreams. This vision informed the creation of our Wealth for Women Fund, which provides women with a secure and accessible avenue to invest smartly and build long-term financial security.”

The Yoga and Money Meet Up reflects a joint vision to empower Nigerian women through financial education and protection.

US Oil Import from Nigeria Down 67%

The United States decreased its oil import from Nigeria by 67 per cent in 2014, signaling growing economic pain and sustained pressure on foreign reserves, already down to $29.3 billion as at April 15, 2015, its lowest point since 2010. Figures from the US Department of Commerce suggest that U.S. total trade in 2014 (exports plus imports) with sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) also went down by 18 per cent to $52.1 billion compared to 2013. “In 2014, U.S. imports from SSA decreased by 32 percent, falling to $26.7 billion and representing only 1.1 percent of total U.S. imports from the world. This decrease was mostly due to a 51 percent decrease in U.S. mineral fuel and oil imports from SSA. U.S. imports from SSA originated, for the most part, from South Africa Nigeria, Angola, Côte d’Ivoire, and Chad,” the report says.
