Jubilee Holdings Limited has announced the amalgamation of its Ugandan Health and Life insurance subsidiaries, Jubilee Health Insurance Company of Uganda Limited (JHICU) and Jubilee Life Insurance Company of Uganda Limited (JLICU).

Existing policies will remain valid, and all assets, liabilities and policy obligations of Jubilee Health Insurance Company of Uganda Limited will transfer to Jubilee Life Insurance Company of Uganda Limited.
Customers, employees, and partners should expect normal operations throughout the transition period. Speaking during the announcement, Jubilee Holdings chairman, Zul Abdul, said the amalgamation is intended to strengthen Jubilee’s footprint in Uganda while reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering excellence and peace of mind to customers.

This amalgamation is a strategic step in reinforcing our leadership position while affirming our unwavering commitment to our customers. We will ensure uninterrupted service throughout this transition and continue to offer innovative, affordable, and relevant insurance solutions that meet the evolving needs of individuals, families, and businesses in Uganda and beyond.”
