Ceylinco Life celebrates 35th anniversary with historic achievement and awards event

The top award winners with Ceylinco Life management

Ceylinco Life celebrated its 35th anniversary and 19th year of market leadership with a spectacular annual awards event at which it recognised 259 exceptional performers with generous awards that fittingly rewarded their outstanding contributions to the company’s results in 2022.

Held at the Hilton Colombo, the awards party and dinner saw the presentation of a total of 350 awards. The highlight of the event, however, was the presentation of company-maintained vehicles to two top achievers R.P.G. De Silva of the Bambalapitiya branch and K.B.A. Thushara of the Kotahena branch.  

Ceylinco Life also made history at the event by honouring a record 214 members of its sales force who qualified for the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) in 2022, a new achievement for the Company. Moreover, this year’s ‘High Flyer’ award winners were rewarded with accommodation packages at the Hilton Colombo.

The event was graced by the presence of Masayuki Tanaka, the Managing Director of the Foundation for the Advancement of Life & Insurance Around the World (FALIA), as the Chief Guest, adding an extra layer of distinction to the evening’s festivities.

Addressing the event, Ceylinco Life Managing Director and CEO Thushara Ranasinghe said, “Year 2023 is a significant year in our history as we celebrate our 35th anniversary. We have gone through three difficult years, including a global pandemic and more recently the political and economic crisis in Sri Lanka. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you present here for the contribution and the effort made in transforming our company to be the leading life insurer for 19 consecutive years.”

The top award winners at this year’s annual awards were Best Overall Regional Sales Manager –  S. Venukaran of the Batticaloa Region, Best Overall Life Insurance Advisor - A. I. P. Manjula of the Ambalantota branch, Best Overall Unit Head – A.R.F.Risna of the Wellawatta branch, and Best Overall Head of Branch - V. Baskaran of the Nelliady branch.

The awards gala was attended by the winners and their families, as well as Ceylinco Life’s corporate leadership team.
