Activa's New Online Insurance System

Also, they can purchase personal accident, home, and motor insurance. Activa is determined to make the insurance purchase process simple for all clients. Activa Online will offer them unlimited access to travel insurance. They can get insurance quotes, make online payments and click a button to receive their insurance documentation.

Mr. Steve stated that the online insurance system will help Ghanaians to access other insurance products including home, motor, and personal accident insurance. They can make and track insurance claims online. The Activa official assured clients that the company will settle simple insurance claims the same day they file them. Activa International Insurance Ghana designed the new system to help clients access its insurance premium finance in the purchase and quotation processes.

During the system's launch, Mr. Michael Kofi Andoh, the Deputy Commissioner of Insurance stated that the National Insurance Commission of Ghana recently introduced a Motor Insurance Database (MiD) to gain more control in the insurance industry. The database will help the commission identify fraudulent insurance firms that offer fake insurance stickers and undercut their premiums.

Mr. Kofi praised Activa for its bold move. He urged other travel insurance providers in Ghana to upgrade their insurance systems. Charles Kwakye endorsed Activa's online system on behalf of the Director-General of the Police. He said that the platform will help his department track illegal insurance covers in the nation.

Mr. Solomon Lartey, the Managing Director of Activa International Insurance assured Mr. Michael that Activa's new online insurance system complies with all regulatory requirements in the insurance market.

Activa International Insurance Ghana (AIIG) started operating in 20005 as the Global Alliance Insurance. The National Insurance Commission licensed it to provide general business insurance.
