PHILIPSBURG:--- In his role as regional director and various capacities over the years, SIBA recognized Mr. Ellis last weekend, primarily in his role as Claims Director at Nagico, one of the leading insurance Companies in the Caribbean.
SIBA members primarily represent the rights of customers to a fast and fair settlement in contracts known as insurance policies. While sales representatives often highlight the attractive features of a policy, customers are often left at a disadvantage in terms of understanding their rights versus obligations when a claim arises.
The actions of a claims director are therefore critical in giving customers a good experience of the insurance sector, a role in which Mr. Ellis always observed law, policy wording, and jurisprudence.
While parties were not always pleased with each outcome, there was always evidence of fairness and reasonableness in his decisions.
Now retired, SIBA took a moment to present Mr. Ellis with a token of recognition, as his work was impactful and a reminder that the sector plays a meaningful role in safeguarding the hard-earned assets, risks and liabilities customers entrust the sector insure.
The common consensus of SIBA is that Mr. Eric Ellis, with his calm demeanor, low-keyed work style and dedication to doing what is fair, should be considered a silent giant to the Insurance Sector.
