HNB General Insurance Ltd. (HNBGI), the fully-owned subsidiary of HNB Assurance PLC (HNBA), stood together with Micro Cars Ltd., as it was announced that the two entities have agreed upon a Memorandum of Understanding, to promote the MG range of vehicles. This partnership is aimed at enhancing the synergies that the two companies bear in a sense of insuring vehicles, whilst matching business quality and consistency. The MOU was signed by HNBA and HNBGI Managing Director/CEO Deepthi Lokuarachchi and Micro Cars Ltd. Director Ruvindhu Guneratne.

Sharing his views about the agreement, Lokuarachchi stated, “We have been working togerther with Mirco Cars Ltd. for some time now and over the years have been offering the motoring public of Sri Lanka the peace of mind to enjoy the pleasures of driving a MG knowing that their pride on wheels is fully covered. We are also pleased at working towards offering free insurance covers to those who own a MG from Micro Cars, who has been a mover and shaker in Sri Lanka’s automotive industry in the recent times. Our insurance solutions can be tailored to suit the discerning motorist so that adequate protection for the vehicle could be obtained. 

“In this regard, I would like to mention our product, MotorGuard Extra for example, which allows replacement of brand new parts without an owners contribution even after the first three years. We are very pleased to sign this MOU with Micro to promote such an iconic motoring brand as MG. I am sure that this tie up whilst being mutually beneficial to both our organisations, would be of greater benefit to both our customers.”
