by extension, it will contribute to the social protection of the citizens and enhance their financial security and peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p>Deputy Managing Director for Allianz Ghana, Martin Amoah, who explained the details of the product, assured clients of competitive premiums for a much better cover than the market offers on the average.<\/p>\n<p>He said for a third party cover, there is no limit on what Allianz will pay for the recovery of another person\u2019s property or car accidentally damaged by a policy holder.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also offer the policy holder and driver money for medical bills in case they were hurt in such accident,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to the comprehensive package, he said the policy covers not just damage, but even when the covered vehicle is stolen, once it is proven the car was stolen from the policy holder.<\/p>\n<p>Martin Amoah however cautioned that, to prevent abuse, Allianz has put together a crack investigation team who puts every claim to strict proof before a vehicle will be replaced.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>dav Ecobank Ghana, the country\u2019s biggest bank, has struck yet another deal with Allianz Insurance Company to deepen its footprints in the bancassurance market with juicy offers for customers.
