He adds that their acceptance rate was 97 percent, which means only 3% were declined due to non-conformance with policy terms and conditions.

Nacola adds that they disbursed an average of $1.8 million per week, which included maturity payouts for life insurance policies, death and disability payouts, and payments for expensive overseas evacuations.
