Amãna Takaful turns 15

Amãna Takaful PLC, a full-fledged Takaful operator in the country, recently completed 15 years of spearheading the Takaful concept in Sri Lanka.

The composite insurer celebrated the occasion with a ceremony for long standing Life and General customers, key strategic partners and the company's Board of Directors and staff.

The company marked the feat by conducting customer felicitations around the country at all its branches islandwide as well.

Chief Executive Officer, Amãna Takaful, Fazal Ghaffoor said, "The word, Amãna means 'trust' and the concept of Takaful is all about 'mutuality'. Our company name signifies mutual trust, which is the foundation of our entire business operation."

"The company operates on the values of sharing and mutual well-being and since its inception in 1999, has built a legacy of outstanding service, trustworthiness and transparency," he said.

"Over the years, Amãna Takaful has set up 25 branches across Sri Lanka and in 2004, the company expanded its international presence to the Republic of Maldives," Ghafoor said.

"During a decade, Amãna Takaful Maldives has successfully pioneered the Takaful concept and commands an enviable share of the insurance market as a free standing public company listed on the Maldives Stock Exchange," he said.

The company recently presented all non-claimant General policyholders a surplus amounting to 15 percent, an increase from last year's 12.5 percent.
