EC Global Brings Convenience to the North

EC Global Insurance, an East Caribbean Financial Holding (ECFH) subsidiary, has extended its services to the northern hub of Rodney Bay where it has opened its brand new Convenience Centre. Located at the Providence Commercial Centre, the EC Global Insurance Convenience Centre offers customers products and services that are also available at its head office in Castries. The official opening took place on Friday, January 28th with scores of customers, staff and specially invited guests in attendance.

Speaking at the opening, EC Global's CEO, Mr. Leathon Khan shared the rationale for opening the new facility when he said that, "We have analyzed the geographical dispersion of our customer base and recognized that as our customer base expands, as it has in the North, that we have to respond to these developments and position ourselves where our customers and business associates can easily and conveniently reach us". Mr. Khan added that there are plans to offer extended opening hours to give customers even more convenience to conduct their insurance business.

Also addressing the opening was Chairperson of EC Global, Ms Emma Hippolyte, who pointed out that EC Global's Convenience Centre was also part of its parent company's northern expansion. ECFH is constructing a corporate building in Gros Islet and in 2009, its largest subsidiary, Bank of Saint Lucia, opened its business centre also located at Providence Commercial Centre in Rodney Bay. These developments, she said, showed the Group's commitment to the socio-economic progress of the island.

The EC Global Insurance Convenience Centre offers a range of services including insurance renewals, claim submissions and premium financing; and its opening hours are Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 4:30pm.
