After two international investors absorbed 60 per cent stake in Royal Exchange General Insurance Company (REGIC), and Royal Exchange retaining the remaining 40 per cent, the insurer has now rebranded to Rex Insurance Limited.
To this end, it launched a new brand identity and commissioned a state-of-the-art head office, with renewed strength to offer top notch services to customers.
The chairman of Rex Insurance Limited, Ike Chioke, while speaking at the event said, the last three years saw the coming of international investors, Blue Orchard through its Insuresilience Fund and Africinvest through its Financial Inclusion Vehicle (Five) into the company.

“Staff well-being is paramount to the organisation as we believe our employees are our primary stakeholders.

To foster a family-friendly work atmosphere that prioritises the needs of working parents, we have also set up a creche for our nursing mothers,” he submitted.
He noted that customers are at the heart of everything the company does, adding that the new head office embodies the firm’s unwavering dedication to providing the highest level of customer service.
“With advanced technologies and improved facilities, we are poised to enhance the customer experience significantly. Every element of this building has been designed with our customers in mind, ensuring that we can respond more swiftly, efficiently, and effectively to their needs,” he pointed out.
Similarly, its managing director/CE, Ebelechukwu Nwachukwu said, the moment marks a significant milestone in the company’s journey that started since 1918 and a testament to the hard work, dedication, and vision of everyone involved adding that the firm is truly a transgenerational company and today’s occasion is to celebrate this.

We have transformed our approach to customer services and improved our human resources. Revamping of Brand today is to reflect all of the changes that have already happened to the business and the transformation that is still ongoing,” she posited.
