The company said the move will align its resources, governance, and operational capabilities with changing regulatory requirements while positioning it to compete more effectively in a highly dynamic and competitive sector.

The PUNCH reported that Lasaco Assurance recently launched six products, including an Estate Plan, Future Secure, Comprehensive Plus Personal Belongings, and three enhanced third-party motor insurances.

The underwriter said that it plans to expand its market share through partnerships, strengthen its capital base, and then reinforce its operational, governance, technology, and compliance focus.

These measures are designed to create a resilient and high-performing organisation capable of delivering on its strategic objectives.

Speaking on the company’s evolving direction, the Acting Managing Director, Mr Ademoye Shobo, highlighted the importance of execution consistency and organisational alignment, saying, “As the business environment continues to evolve, our priority is execution. We are aligning our people, processes, and technology to ensure that our strategic intent translates into improved service delivery, stronger performance, and sustainable growth.”

From a financial perspective, the Deputy Managing Director, Mr Rilwan Oshinusi, emphasised the company’s focus on capital discipline, efficient resource allocation, and balance sheet resilience.

“Financial strength is the backbone of our execution strategy. We are optimising capital deployment, strengthening our balance sheet, and ensuring that growth initiatives are supported by prudent financial management. This positions us to meet regulatory requirements while delivering long-term value for shareholders and policyholders,” Mr Oshinusi said.

Providing further insight into the company’s strategic framework, the Head of Strategy, Research, and Communications, Mr Adedayo Adetokun, explained that Lasaco Assurance Plc has adopted a structured, layered approach to execution.

“Our strategy is designed to reflect current market realities. We are driving growth and market enrichment, reinforcing core stability and governance, and strengthening the capabilities required to deliver results. This ensures that every initiative aligns with our broader objectives and that execution remains focused, measurable, and sustainable,” he said.
