Aretha Duku<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

THE GHANA
\nInsurers Association (GIA) at the weekend elected Aretha Abena Abrafi Duku as
\nits president for the second term.<\/p>\n

The
\ninvestiture officiated by Justice Angelina Mensah, a High Court Judge, at the
\nMovenpick Hotel in Accra, was followed by the swearing in of new board members
\nfor the GIA.<\/p>\n

The Deputy Commissioner of Insurance, Michael Kofi Andoh, who delivered the keynote address on behalf of the Commissioner of Insurance, Justice Yaw Ofori, called on players in Ghana\u2019s insurance landscape to invest massively in Information Technology (IT) to expand the frontiers of insurance to the youth.<\/p>\n

According to
\nhim, as the world gets digitized, it was proper that insurance companies latch
\nonto technology to further their services.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe
\nfinancial services are getting digitized. As you know now, people can sit at
\nhome or in their offices and pay people, transfer money, check their balances
\nand trace their bank statements\u2026\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

The President
\nof the Ghana National Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Nana Dr. Appiagyei
\nDankawaso I, who chaired the occasion, advised the insurance industry to guard
\nagainst the increasing threat of cybercrime by investing in IT to forestall any
\nfinancial losses to players.<\/p>\n

Ms. Duku,
\nwho described her first tenure as a pleasant shock, said, \u201cWe have seen a lot
\nof changes in the regulatory front. It\u2019s been challenging but I was fortunate
\nto enjoy the support of the outgoing board. We will continue with insurance
\neducation in all parts of the country and all sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout
\neducation, insurers are going nowhere. We want to pursue online space and reach
\neven children with education on the usefulness of insurance. Technology would
\nbe embraced innovatively,\u201d she stressed adding that \u201cforensic lab and bonds are
\nother areas GIA is working on. We want an insurance industry that would be
\nrespected, that can be the backbone of the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
