As a result of the environment and the growth of the Insurance industry itself, insurance awareness all over India has increased. Even in small towns we see an increase in per capita income and savings potential, thus increasing the potential of the market significantly – not to mention the fact that most Indians are terribly underinsured, or do not have any form of insurance for their most valuable non-life assets. We want to provide convenience of reach to customers in this regard. Our focus will remain on providing our customers Total Insurance solutions through every one of our touch points.” said Mr. Deepak Sood, CEO – Future Generali India Insurance Co. Ltd.
