HNB Assurance Hosts First-Ever International Partnership Awards in Thailand, Recognizing the Channel’s Milestones and Top Achievers

HNB Assurance PLC made history by hosting its Partnership Awards 2024 on an international stage for the very first time. Held at the prestigious Berkeley Hotel in Bangkok, the event brought together over 100 participants, including HNB and HNB Assurance staff, Bancassurance Officers and their families, for a night of celebration, recognition and appreciation. The Partnership Awards, a key annual event for HNB Assurance, is about acknowledging the exceptional contributions of the company’s partnership channel, which has played a critical role in the overall company’s growth. 

This year’s event was special, as it was the first time an awards ceremony of this nature was held outside Sri Lanka—an exciting milestone which reflects HNB Assurance’s growth and ambitious leadership and vision. 

Speaking at the event, Mr. Lasitha Wimalaratne, CEO of HNB Assurance shared his excitement about the channel’s achievements: “It’s a proud moment for us to be here in Thailand, celebrating the hard work and remarkable milestones of our partnership channel which has shown remarkable growth over the past couple of years. The journey of crossing the LKR 5 billion Gross Written Premium milestone is no small feat and the fact that our partnership channel now contributes almost 46% of our total GWP shows just how vital its role is, in our success. As we move ahead, we must strive to push our boundaries by staying innovative and focusing on customer satisfaction. So, congratulations to all the award winners and teams behind organizing this gala event.”

Mr. Supun Dias, Assistant General Manager, Network Business of Hatton National Bank, attending the ceremony as the Guest of Honor, opined, “It truly is remarkable to see the progress HNB Assurance has made over the years. To grow year after year within a challenging economic landscape is no easy task. I am confident that with this momentum, HNB Assurance will continue to achieve greater success and set new benchmarks in the industry. It’s an exciting time and journey ahead for us as the HNB group and I’m extremely proud to be here to witness this milestone."

HNB Assurance was recognized as the best Life Bancassurance Provider by the Global Banking and Finance Review for four consecutive years. Further the bancassurance team recorded an impressive milestone of 122 MDRT qualifiers out of a sales force of over 200.

“What makes this event special is that we’re not just celebrating numbers, we’re celebrating our people” stated Mr. Sanesh Fernando, Chief Business Officer Partnerships. “It’s been a privilege to watch our Bancassurance Officers grow and achieve new heights each year. This event in Thailand is a reflection of just how far we’ve come together and I certainly believe that the best is yet to come. Recording 122 MDRT qualifiers including 17 COTs and 02 TOTs last year and being recognized as the Best Life Bancassurance Provider on four consecutive occasions is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our team. While these achievements highlight the exceptional talent within our Bancassurance channel, I have no doubt that we will continue reach even greater heights in the future. Finally, I’d like to take a moment to thank our parent company Hatton National Bank along with our other partner banks, financial institutions and broker network for their continued support.”
