It was a productive meeting as there were crucial deliberations on strategic plans for Allianz Nigeria to provide support for the German diaspora in Nigeria with attendant consequences on the Nigerian economy.
The German industry is very active in Nigeria with a large number of small and medium-sized German companies operating in the country.
The Executive Officer, Allianz Nigeria, Owolabi Salami, remarked that whereas Germany and Nigeria have excellent bilateral relations, there is ample opportunity to intensify and deepen the relations between both countries.
“Germany and Nigeria are the largest national economies in their respective continents. Interestingly enough, Allianz, our parent company, is native to Germany. By default then, securing the needs of German businesses and individuals in Nigeria is our serious responsibility”, he enthused.
The Allianz Group is one of the world’s leading insurers and asset managers with more than 92 million retail and corporate customers.
