Sri Lanka Insurance Corporation General Ltd. (SLICGL) has entered into a strategic bancassurance partnership with the Regional Development Bank (RDB), the leading financial institution dedicated to development finance, to ensure greater accessibility and convenience for customers seeking comprehensive insurance coverage.

The landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was recently signed at the RDB Head Office in Kelaniya, with top management representatives from both organisations in attendance. The milestone marks a significant step towards providing the rural masses with accessible and affordable insurance services to empower them and contribute to uplifting the rural economy.

Through the bancassurance partnership, SLICGL’s diverse range of insurance products will be available throughout RDB’s country-wide branch network. To date, RDB accounts for over six million loyal account holders, supported by an islandwide network of 272 branches.

Leveraging RDB’s widespread branch network and recognition as a trusted financial institution, SLICGL can reach a broader audience and provide all communities with peace of mind that comes with a comprehensive insurance service.
