At the presentation which was held in the conference room of the NAGICO Head Office Mr. Mcsood stated, “We appreciate that you continue to support NAGICO and we are very happy to see that you have realized this level of growth; what makes it a very good thing is that it has been growth coupled with profitability.“
The Agent of the Year Award is chosen based on several criteria including premium production, growth, conservative portfolio and profit. OCI was able to provide the best figures in the above categories amongst the agents within the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba. Mr. Theo Lui stated, “I am happy to be able to contribute to NAGICO, from the beginning NAGICO has been there with me, you have had confidence in my ability and you helped us to get started. Four years have run very fast and it is my goal to pass the 1 million mark next year.” When asked about his recipe for success, Mr. Liu indicated the key ingredients to his success, “Following the principals of honesty and trust are important, if you don’t have a good intention you’d never be successful.” Determination is another element which has seen Mr. Liu through, and this is something he passes on to the young people he helps through his Tae Kwon Do instruction, all a part of the community activity and sports which he says, helps to keep him balanced.
Oriental Caribbean Insurances (OCI) also received the NAGICO gold pin during the presentation. The pin is awarded to agents who were able to achieve premium rates between US $ 500,001 - $ 2.5 million. The gold pins are shaped to look like umbrellas representing the well known NAGICO logo.
