Group Chief Executive Officer of Enterprise Group Limited, Keli Gadzekpo, in his remarks noted that regardless of the pressures imposed on the business by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group has put in place critical measures to ensure that the business is able to execute its mandate successfully, without exposing our staff and valued customers to the risk of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“As insurers, we understand how unpredictable shocks like pandemics can disrupt our very existence. While we did not predict such a momentous disruption as COVID-19, the Enterprise Leadership Team took it very seriously right at the beginning of the crisis and took necessary actions to protect employees, customers and the interest of our stakeholders”

“We have set an ambitious and clear path for the years ahead. We revitalized the Enterprise Group Limited in 2019 and I am confident that 2020 will be another year of progress in building our product offering even in the mist of COVID-19 and its attendant impact”, Mr. Gadzekpo added.

The Enterprise Group Limited is the holding company of five subsidiary companies namely Enterprise Insurance, Enterprise Life, Enterprise Trustees, Enterprise Properties and Enterprise Funeral Services (Transitions). The 2020 AGM was held virtually due to the restrictions imposed by COVID-19.
