By LOVETH AZODO,  Lagos

AIICO Insurance Plc on Friday formally unveiled a refreshed brand identity, a move the company says reflects a strategic shift aimed at aligning its long-standing legacy with the expectations of a rapidly changing market.

The unveiling event, attended by industry stakeholders, partners and members of the media, marked a new chapter for the insurer, which has operated in Nigeria’s financial services landscape for more than six decades.

Speaking at the event, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of AIICO Insurance Plc, Babatunde Fajemirokun, described the refresh as a reflection of a broader internal transformation.

He said the new identity captures the resilience and forward momentum of the organisation, noting that while the brand’s appearance has evolved, its core promise to customers remains unchanged.

According to him, the rebranding is designed to position AIICO to better serve a diverse customer base that now spans long-standing policyholders as well as a growing segment of younger, digitally inclined customers seeking accessible and flexible insurance solutions. The refreshed identity, he said, allows the brand to speak more clearly to today’s realities without disconnecting from its heritage.

Also addressing guests, Chief Digital and Information Officer, Olusanjo Shodimu, linked the new brand look to AIICO’s ongoing digital transformation agenda.

He explained that the identity aligns with the company’s push for smarter processes, stronger digital platforms and more connected customer experiences, adding that the rebrand serves as a visual signal of AIICO’s readiness for the future.

The new brand expression cuts across AIICO’s digital channels, office spaces and customer touchpoints, creating a more consistent and contemporary experience for customers and partners.

Company executives noted that the changes were carefully developed to balance modern design with the values that have defined the brand since its founding.
