The story

Enterprise Life Nigeria is a subsidiary of Ghana-headquartered Enterprise Group Plc, whose roots trace back to Enterprise Insurance Company Ltd (1924). The Nigerian entity operates as a specialist life insurer offering risk and savings products (Digisave, Child Educare, Life Time Needs, Income Protection, Family Care). The company is investing in digital distribution via the AdvantageConnect app and a fully-digital Digisave onboarding flow, positioning itself as a digitally-enabled life insurer rather than an embedded-finance infrastructure provider.
