We are humbled by the magnitude of the responsibility we carry and realise the lives that are associated with us are very valuable indeed. Though this journey started over two decades ago, we are still conscious of the fact that, while insurance may be a business for us, being part of millions of lives every day for the past 20 years has been a process called TRUST. Because "Trust is our Motto".
