The company also introduced a new scheme for digitally connected housewives and students pursuing academic or professional qualifications to work from home and earn an additional income, by providing protection to their friends and family. The revolutionary concept branded ‘e-Consultant – Insurance’ leverages the end to end digital sales process developed by UA and aims to attract a new breed of insurance advisors to the life insurance industry.

The company is anchored by a team of experienced and dynamic professionals, and is backed by a strong capital base and reinsurance partnerships with highly rated global reinsurers.
