Over the past year, Nasria has navigated various challenges with resilience and adaptability,\u201d said Vugs.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, the company handed over a dividend of N$7.7 million.<\/p>\n<p>According to a statement issued by Nasria, insurance revenue increased by 9% from N$77 million last year to N$84 million this year, mainly driven by renewals business.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the company\u2019s reserves increased from N$709 million to N$802 million. This is mainly due to an increased profit.<\/p>\n<p>Nasria says it decreased its liabilities by 48% in the previous financial year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe total liabilities declined by 48% from N$129 million in 2023 to N$67 million in 2024, due to the settlement of the reinsurance liabilities and dividends paid to the shareholder,\u201d a statement says.<\/p>\n<p>According to Nasria, the company\u2019s investment income was equal to its insurance revenue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInvestment income of N$83 million was achieved, which is the first time in the history of Nasria that investment income is equal to insurance revenue,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s reserves increased from N$709 million to N$802 million, driven by the increased profit earned during the year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mission is to contribute meaningfully to the economic development of Namibia, while ensuring that we provide the best possible service to our clients.
