The
Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun, disclosed this during the National Insurance
Conference of the Insurance Industry Consultative Council with the theme: ‘Nigeria open for business’, yesterday in
Abuja.
The
minister said that through the Voluntary Asset and Income Declaration Scheme,
the Federal Government would train insurance brokers and underwriters because
they are the people who would support individuals to purchase insurance
policies that hedge potential losses of wealth and assets.
While
pointing out that the Federal Government appreciated the fact that the
insurance industry was dynamic and creating employment and entrepreneurship
opportunities at all levels, she said the government would support the sector
to continue to contribute effectively to sustainable and inclusive economic growth.
