The entire workforce - from the branch manager to the support staff, are women and SGIC has plans to strategically replicate the same model nationwide going forward.

Anil Kumar Aggarwal, MD & CEO, Shriram General Insurance Company said “Diversity and inclusion are crucial for organizations to create an environment that fosters innovation, productivity, and employee satisfaction. Studies have found that women who work in diverse organizations report higher job satisfaction. By hiring qualified women at all levels, we create a more inclusive culture that values diversity.  The CFO and the Legal Head at SGI are women, which is indicative of the culture the company has built.”

Like any other SGI branch, the women-exclusive branches will offer insurance and other financial products with the same fervour, and rich customer experience. The company plans to open more such branches across the country to facilitate the professional growth of women.
