Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to policyholders with the payment of over N3.9 billion in claims across its Life and General Insurance businesses in June 2026, underscoring the company’s financial strength and dedication to standing by customers when they need support the most.

The claims, paid to individuals, families and businesses across the country, reflect Mutual Benefits’ longstanding tradition of honouring valid claims promptly, while providing customers with the financial support needed to recover from unexpected losses and continue pursuing their personal and business aspirations with confidence.

Beyond the figures, the impact of timely claims settlement is best reflected in the experiences of customers whose lives and businesses have been positively affected.

One policyholder whose motor insurance claim was recently settled expressed appreciation for the company’s professionalism and efficiency, stating ‘Thank you for your excellent services and very quick response to claims’.

Another customer whose Goods in Transit claim under the company’s General Accident Insurance policy was recently settled also commended Mutual Benefit’s professionalism and responsiveness, saying: The process was smooth, transparent and handled with a high level of professionalism. Thank you, Mutual Benefits, for standing by your promise and settling my claim without unnecessary delays.”

Such testimonials reflect the company’s customer-centric approach and its ongoing commitment to delivering a seamless claims experience built on transparency, responsiveness and empathy.

Commenting on the development, Joseph Oladokun, executive director, Technical, Mutual Benefits Assurance Plc, reaffirmed the company’s firm commitment to prompt and seamless claims settlement, noting that claims payment remains the ultimate proof of an insurer’s promise to its customers.

“At Mutual Benefits, we understand that the true value of insurance is demonstrated at the point of claim. This is why we have continued to strengthen our claims management processes to ensure valid claims are assessed and settled promptly, transparently and professionally.

The payment of over N3.9 billion in claims in June reflects not only our financial capacity but also our commitment to delivering a swift turnaround time that enables our customers to recover quickly from unexpected losses. Every claim we settle represents a promise fulfilled and we remain focused on making the claims experience as seamless and reassuring as possible. Our goal is to give every policyholder confidence that when the unexpected happens, Mutual Benefits will respond with the speed, empathy and professionalism they deserve.”

Equally important, the company noted that prompt claims settlement remains one of the strongest indicators of an insurer’s credibility and financial capacity. By consistently honouring valid claims, Mutual Benefits continues to reinforce confidence in insurance as a dependable financial protection tool, while contributing to the growth and sustainability of Nigeria’s insurance industry.

As Mutual Benefits continues to deepen insurance penetration across Nigeria, the company remains focused on delivering innovative insurance solutions, exceptional customer service and prompt claims settlement that provide individuals and businesses with the confidence to protect what matters most.
