Ceylinco’s insurance scheme thro’ the ubiquitous Sri Lankan postman

Ceylinco General Insurance said in Monday it has struck a deal with the Sri Lanka Postal Service to offer third party insurance policies to customers through the country’s postal network. In a bid to create ease of access for customers, the third party insurance policies will be available from over 4,610 post offices and sub post offices around the island, as well as through over 8,000 postmen. This service includes all third party policies offered for motor cycles, three wheelers, hand tractors and motor vehicles through Ceylinco General Insurance, according to a company statement. “The third party insurance policy offered by Ceylinco General Insurance is unique because it is the only policy that will compensate the policy holder for the full market value of the motor cycle if it is condemned due to an accident. Additionally, the policy holder also receives a Rs. 50,000 personal accident cover,” it said. These third party policies will be delivered to homes by over 8,000 postmen across the island. (ends)
