GLICO GROUP launches new service for homeowners

As one of the country’s premier insurance companies, GLICO GROUP prides itself on protecting Ghanaians from loss, damage, illness and death. And starting in November, the company has announced that it will launch a homeowners’ package created to give property owners a peace of mind.

“We are indigenous and we are always looking for the best way to help Ghanaians,” said Angela Asante, the Head of National Sales at GLICO GROUP on the Super Morning Show, Tuesday.

Here’s how it works. For as little as 64 peswas a day, homeowners are protected in the event of a flood, fire or burglary. The annual policy covers any loss to the home under a contract between the policyholder and GLICO GROUP.

A research in the Safety and Health at Work publication found that between 2000-2013, domestic fires accounted for 41% of all fires in Ghana. Those fires were among others including industrial, vehicular, institutional, electrical, commercial and bushfires.

“We do all the worrying. We cushion you for life,” said Nana Efua Rockson, the group head of Corporate Affairs and Marketing at GLICO GROUP. “When it comes to claims payments you can’t do much but to say that GLICO takes care of you 24 hours a day.”

GLICO GROUP started as a specialist life insurance company in 1987 and has since grown to become a conglomerate representing six entities including GLICO Life, GLICO Healthcare, GLICO Capital, GLICO Properties, GLICO Pensions and GLICO Homeowners. The company currently lists as one of Ghana’s top five insurers in terms of market shares.

Charles Graham-Mensah, GLICO GROUP’s Chief Business Development Officer, told Joy FM’s Daniel Dadzie that last year, there was a reported GH¢31.2 million squandered away on fire damage.

“We felt it was important that we relaunch our homeowners’ insurance. It’s was the best way to ensure your home.”
