Amãna Takaful recently kept to its promise
of ‘redefining insurance’, by announcing a 15 percent payment of SURPLUS to its
non-claimant policyholders. Amãna
Takaful is the only insurer in Sri Lanka who shares a part of the SURPLUS from its
risk fund at the end of a defined period. SURPLUS is commonly referred to as
underwriting profit by insurance companies and usually forms part of a company’s
retained profits. This signifies the company’s
commitment to sharing and also makes the net cost of insurance cheaper for
non-claimant Takaful policyholders.
One of the few ISO certified insurance
operators in Sri Lanka; ATPLC established in 1999 pioneered the concept of
Takaful in Sri Lanka challenging the traditional insurance concept through its
unique and equitable mechanisms. ATPLC also operates three key strategic
business units that specialise in Life, General and
Medical Takaful, and offers a unique
approach to serve its respective customer segments. Amãna Takaful’s range of
solutions includes; General insurance policies covering Fire, Burglary, Motor and
Marine insurance. In the Medical category, several health insurance solutions for
individuals and corporates are fashioned and tailored to suit various needs.
KruthaGuna, an award winning one of a kind product targeting the medical
insurance requirements of senior citizens, is one of Amãna Takaful’s key
innovations within the industry during the recent past. In the Life category,
the company offers child education, retirement, medium and long-term protection
and investment solutions, mortgage protection and Group Life solutions for
corporates. Amãna Takaful reaches out to all customer segments in Sri Lanka through
its twenty-five branches island-wide.
