Life insurance company, Hollard Life Assurance, a subsidiary of Hollard Ghana, has announced a free COVID-19 cover for all its existing and new customers on individual and group policies.

This, the company said is to help ease the burden of the pandemic on Ghanaians.

At no additional cost, the complimentary Covid-19 cover will provide policyholders and their beneficiaries with financial support in the event of hospitalisation or death as a result of the novel coronavirus disease.

Group CEO, Hollard Ghana, Patience Akyianu said, “These are not normal times.

With COVID-19 and the uncertainty it presents, our customers want support that goes beyond funeral or personal accident cover.

We are committed to ensuring a secure future for them, hence this comprehensive benefit to safeguard their wellbeing and add value to the existing products we offer.

On his part, Managing Director, Hollard Life Assurance, Nashiru Iddrisu, said Hollard Life’s products are uniquely designed to cater for individual, family and group needs even during the pandemic.

“We’ve got our existing and new customers covered. Adepa Life Insurance policy is a simple family-oriented plan, that covers the policy holder and up to seven members of their family.

Our Purple Employee Plan provides a more comprehensive, 24-hour protection, adequate and substantial cover at competitive premiums for employees throughout their employment.

"It is our purpose to treat everyone with care and dignity so adding on this automatic benefit makes sense.”
