Beside the NCC, NDIC, SEC and NIA which had confirmed attendance at the conference, Onwuatogwu said security agencies, local and international investors, chief executive officers of companies, notable aviators, bankers, insurance, fintech, risk management professionals and others will be at the conference.
“The event which promises to be grand is expected to proffer solutions to the numerous challenges, bothering on financial risk and insecurity, encountered by individuals and organisations operating in the country via the use of insurance and technology.
“The conference will also aid the deepening and understanding of the use and application of insurance both from individual and organizations perspectives.
“This becomes more apt as curbing insecurity in every form is a major focal point in the agenda of the President Bola Tinubu=led administration that promises to remodel the Nigerian economy to bring about an end to extreme poverty, food insecurity and unemployment, in order to attain the desired socio- economic growth and development,” he added.
