Delta Life Insurance Company Limited was the first Company in Bangladesh to introduce Micro Insurance in 1988 in the name of “Grameen Bima Project” (Rural Insurance) for the rural poor and middle class people. Traditional insurers were not interested in Micro Insurance at that time because of its operational complexity, which requires high degree of innovation and expertise. In 1993, Delta Life launched another Project named “Gono Bima” (People’s insurance) for the urban poor. In 2003, these two projects were merged into one to ensure cost effectiveness & efficiency and renamed as “Gono-Grameen Bima”. The Gono-Grameen Bima is functioning well and playing an important role in earning revenue to enhance the company’s life fund and investment. A high degree of innovation and professionalism was used in designing and developing these insurance products so that it would appeal to the rural masses. Recently this insurance scheme has become widely popular and being implemented by other life insurers in the country and the model is being followed outside the country as well. Delta Life Insurance Company Limited in the process of maintaining its vision has been developing new innovative products by its own Actuarial Department. Within a short span of time, the Company has created franchise value in the market by expanding its business network with a diversified product lines for all classes of client throughout the country.
