The National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) could achieve a potential 10 percent penetration, N1.5 trillion Gross Written Premium (GWP) and 10 per cent increase in insurance density, Checkout Magazine learnt.

In a bid to achieve this, the commission is set to work with Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) cohorts across geo-political zones.

“To increase awareness and education, we will also launch a joint implementation task force with police, FS, FRSC, Ministry of Justice, Mobile Courts, Ministries, Department and Agencies (MDAs) at all levels, among others. We will hold insurance stakeholder’s forum/town hall meetings, launch the Insurance Industry Thought Leadership Series on Testimonials and Endorsements, among others.”
