NAGICO committed to continued growth - Ms Smith

“When the 2017 storms struck, we found that many persons were under-insured and this created some issues, but we have been meeting with customers through our education process to ensure more awareness of their policy coverage. We will ramp up our educational drive ahead of this year’s hurricane season,” Ms Smith stated.

The NAGICO Group has established an impressive and formidable presence in the Caribbean with operations within 21 territories and is a financially strong and stable group due to risk management being at the core of its decision making.

NAGICO is a preferred provider in the region and #1 in many of the islands, due to its reliability, trustworthiness and friendly service – its core values. The NAGICO Group became even stronger when it gained Peak Reinsurance Company Limited, an A-Excellent rated entity by AM Best and maintaining over $800M in equity, as one of its shareholders.
