Mr Agyenim-Boateng said apart from the payment made to GCB Bank, SIC Insurance PLC recently paid $1 million in claims to a client in Accra and $780,000 to another company in Tema.

For his part, the Deputy Man­aging Director (Finance) of GCB Bank PLC, Mr Afram, said the bank cherished its relationship with SIC, adding that it has been mutual­ly beneficial to the two institutions.
