We want to partner with our customers so that we educate them about the
choices available in financial services. This will enable discernment when it comes to
choosing the financial solution suited to their specific needs.
Our customers are low to middle income earners; and may be interacting with
financial products and services in an unequal relationship. They need advice, and
cost effective solutions in order to plan and build financial confidence for themselves
and the next generation.

“ In many communities,
the perception of the insurance industry
is that we only provide funeral insurance and do not have holistic financial offerings
”to address their fundamental needs.
Pain points our customers are facing:
ºº limited access to financial services ºº fewer savings products marketed to
ºº overexposure to funeral products them the belief that financial services
ºº insufficient life cover being sold to
are complex
them
ºº difficult financial terminology, jargon
Our response to this perception is to educate the communities we serve - so that our
customers, are offered a basket of financial solutions with which to create generational
wealth.
