AIICO Says It Remitted Pensions Assets To PTAD, Refutes Claims

The management of insurance company AIICO Insurance Plc. has refuted claims that it did not remit all pension assets to the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD).

Recall that BizWatch Nigeria reported that some top insurance bosses, including AIICO, would face a Senate committee over the non-remittance of pension assets to PTAD.

In a press release issued by AIICO’s Head, Strategic Marketing & Communications Department, Segun Olalandu, the insurance firm said that it had transferred all due pension assets and that it remained compliant with the directive.

It said, “The attention of the Management of AIICO Insurance Plc. has been drawn to a recent report in the media on allegations of non-remittance of pension assets to the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD).

“AIICO Insurance Plc. hereby wishes to inform the public that all pension assets due for remittance have been duly transferred to PTAD since the year 2017, in full compliance with the directive.
