The market report indicated that net claims paid were N148.2billion, signifying an 84.8 per cent of claims made during the period.

“This reflects the professional underwriting capacity of the industry as driven by the intensified regulatory activities of the commission,’’ the bulletin stated.

It added that insurance business recorded a near perfect point of 88.9 per cent claims settlement in Life Insurance as against 76.8 per cent in non-life segment which stood at 76.8 per cent.

It stated also that motor insurance retained its lead, posting a claims settlement ratio of 92 per cent.

“General Accident claims recorded 75 per cent, Fire claims recorded 76.2 per cent, while Aviation and Marine claims recorded 61.9 per cent,’’ it stated.
