WHY DO WE NEED INSURANCE?



Insurance is a way of managing risks. When you buy insurance, you transfer the cost of a potential loss to the insurance company in exchange for a fee, known as the premium. Insurance companies invest the funds securely, so it can grow, and pay out when there’s a claim.
People need insurance for a variety of reasons. In some cases insurance is required by law; however, there are policies that, though not mandatory to have, do give you necessary protections should you suffer a financial loss. And when you do have an insurance policy, there are certain rights and protections you have under Nigerian Insurance law. Different stages of your life will require different insurance needs, so it is important to review your policies at least once a year to make sure you have the best policy to fit your lifestyle.  

INSURANCE HELPS YOU:
  • Own a home, because mortgage lenders need to know your home is protected.
  • Drive vehicles, because few people could afford the repairs, health care costs and legal expenses associated with collisions and injuries without coverage.
  • Maintain your current standard of living if you become disabled or have a critical illness.
  • Cover health care costs like prescription drugs, dental care, vision care and other health-related items.
  • Provide for your family in the event of a death.
  • Run a small business or family farm by managing the risks of ownership.
  • Take vacations without worrying about flight cancellations or other potential issues.
