FOR THE GRAND JOURNEY BEHIND US, AND THE EXCITING ONE AHEAD.
Since our inception in 2001, HNB Assurance PLC has remained committed in its mission to uplift the health, wellbeing and protection of Sri Lankan families. Backed by the strength of Hatton National Bank and listed on the Colombo Stock Exchange since 2003, we have built a legacy of trust, resilience and financial reliability.
For two and a half decades, we have proudly served communities across the nation, delivering trusted life insurance solutions with a wide suite of products in our portfolio ranging from individual life to group life and micro insurance policies. A commitment to care that continues to grow stronger each day.
As HNB Assurance PLC is stepping into its 25th year, we are reinforcing our purpose and strengthening our commitment to deliver meaningful life insurance solutions to the community, continuing the same dedication we have upheld over the past decades as we transition into HNB Life PLC.
HNB Life is committed to reaffirming our presence in the industry, stepping forward not only as a protector but as an enabler, empowering individuals and families with confidence, protection and freedom to pursue their ambitions, no matter what.
With HNB Life demonstrating a sustainable growth trajectory, we recognize the need to recalibrate who we are and how we manifest ourselves in the lives of our customers. The future of life insurance demands more than just protection, it requires a purpose driven approach which empowers financial growth and long-term wellbeing. At HNB Life, our propositions, touchpoints, and our brand are built upon the foundation of the Hatton National Bank Group, which further strengthens our resolve to create meaningful differentiation and demonstrate clear progress in every customer interaction.
Our brand evolution and our renewed identity as HNB Life reflects not just where we have been, but more importantly where we are heading towards; a future ready, customer centered and distinctly differentiated life insurance provider. HNB Life is more than just an insurer, we are a partner in your life, carrying forward the same commitment we have upheld for decades, now with a renewed identity for the future, ready to fuel your aspirations.
