Commissioner for Insurance

NAICOM

The National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) and the National Pension Commission (PenCom) in an epoch-making ceremony held in Abuja on September 1, 2020, signed off the Revised Regulation on Retiree Life Annuity, the Guidelines on Group Life Insurance Policy for Employees and CPS Retiree Pack.
