Sovereign Trust Insurance Plc just recently released the figures of claims obligated in 2019 in affirmation of its commitment in settling all genuine claims as and when due.

In a statement made available by the company’s Spokesperson and Head of Sales and Corporate Communications, Mr. Segun Bankole posited that the Underwriting Firm is not about paying lips service to settlement of genuine claims when they occur.

He however, stated that the claims experience in 2019 was quite commendable when compared to the N4.2b figure of 2018. This, he attributed to the improved claims management process of the Underwriting Firm which has largely been driven by a robust IT infrastructure.

The summary of the claims paid in 2019 shows that Fire had the highest figure of N932m with Oil and Gas Insurance ranking second with total claims settled to the tune of N701m.  Motor Insurance claims amounted to N537m while Marine & Aviation claims stood at N305m. The total sum of N248m was paid as claims on General Accident Policy with CAR closing the figures with N56m bringing the total claims paid to N2.7b.
