Lasaco Assurance Plc has reiterated its commitment to sustain the growth and good performance witnessed in the last fiscal year. To this end, the company has perfected plans to invigorate its three pronged growth strategy to ensure better performance.

The company which has just concluded its annual general meeting (AGM) in Ilorin Kwara State stated that recapitalization and expansion through the instrumentality of merging and acquisition, new-level branding and world-class quality certification and financial system rating would be given critical attention in the fiscal year in order to sustain the gains already made.

Speaking at the end of the company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), the Group Managing Director, Olusola Ladipo-Ajayi disclosed that management is poised to build on the gains recorded in 2013 business year. “Successes recorded in net profit, gross premium income, net premium earned, underwriting profit and other positive indicators are not accidental but results of doggedness and strategic planning.

"We have therefore decided to up the game in the fiscal year for better performance in years to come”, he added.

According to him, success is new cheap but result of hard work and making good business decisions, pointing out that Lasaco group is going to drive itself hard and make more good business decisions this year.

“Just imagine the level of hard work and team spirit the organisation enjoyed from its work force to have moved from loss position of N180million in 2012 to a profit position of N412million in 2013 business year. And that it why at Lasaco Assurance we see our human resources as best asset the company has and we would continue to strive to ensure that they remain at the optimum best through relevant empowerment programmes,” Ladipo-Ajayi stated.

Lasaco Assurance Plc was incorporated in December 1979 and commenced business operation in August 1980.
