CHAMPIONS Insurance has begun leveraging on digitalisation to enhance its product and service offerings.
Technological innovations can help insurance companies streamline their operations and offer quality services.
Champions Insurance recently launched two cutting-edge digital solutions, namely the “Crop and Climate Monitoring Solution” and “Digimune”.
The Crop and Climate Monitoring Solution offers real-time crop and climate monitoring, thereby empowering farmers to make informed decisions and mitigate risks, while Digimune is a transformative cybersecurity solution that provides comprehensive protection for individuals and families against cyber threats.
Champions Insurance digitalisation director Mrs Diana Homodza said: “We recognise that technology is reshaping the way we live and interact with the world.
“With that in mind, we have forged alliances with leading digital platforms and technology providers to bring our offerings directly to customers’ fingertips.
“These partnerships enable us to bring insurance even closer to the customer, meeting their unique requirements and enhancing their overall experience.
“By leveraging on the power of technology and collaborating with industry leaders, we are paving the way for a future where insurance is seamlessly integrated into people’s lives.”
The launch of the digitalisation products came as Champions Insurance also celebrated its 20th anniversary.
Guest of honour at the anniversary and launch event, Insurance and Pensions Commission board chairperson Mr Albert Nduna said the initiatives being taken by the company will help drive insurance penetration in Zimbabwe.
“The company has embraced technology as a competitive tool and is a pacesetter in digital technology.
“Modernising our distribution of products through technology is the answer to the industry’s bid to reach the previously uninsured,” said Mr Nduna.
“We note, as the commission, the thrust the company has taken to introduce various micro-insurance products and believe that this must be applauded.
“The country is lagging in growing the insurance penetration and these initiatives by the company will positively contribute to improving the ratio.”
