Amana Takaful Insurance, one of Sri Lanka’s premier insurers, hosted its highly anticipated Annual Awards Night on the 18th of May 2023, at the Monarch Imperial in Sri Jayewardenepura.

Awards were earned from branches spanning across the entire nation, signifying widespread recognition and success.
The Awards Night was also an opportunity for the management to reinforce the company’s continuous pursuit of excellence and its ability to rise above challenges, supported by its phenomenal people.
An evening filled with memorable moments and outstanding achievements, a major highlight of the night was the recognition of M.M.K Muneef, who was honoured with the esteemed “Champion of Champions” award in the General Insurance Company. This accolade was bestowed upon him in recognition of his exceptional performance and invaluable contributions to the business. In addition to the recognition, Muneef received a cash prize and a foreign tour.
In the Life Insurance Company, A.H.A Ifham claimed the prestigious title of “Champion of Champions” for his remarkable accomplishments. Ifham’s exceptional dedication and outstanding achievements also led him to accomplish a historic milestone by receiving the First Court of the Table (COT) award.

To honour his exceptional achievement, Ifham was awarded a grand cash prize of LKR 1 million.
