Heirs Insurance Group and United Capital Plc have held Yoga and Money Meet Up, an exclusive wellness and financial empowerment event for ambitious women in Lagos, blending guided yoga and stress‑management sessions with expert talks on insurance, investment, and asset protection. The one‑day event underlined the two institutions’ shared commitment to making financial wellness relevant, accessible, and integrated into the everyday lives of Nigerian women.
Ifesinachi Okoli‑Okpagu, Chief Marketing Officer at Heirs Insurance Group, stressed the close connection between insurance and personal wellness. She explained that self‑care is not only about physical or mental relaxation but also about making conscious choices to protect one’s financial future. For women balancing careers, businesses, and family responsibilities, the event spoke directly to the challenge of safeguarding assets while managing the pressures of daily life.
She introduced HerMotor, a bespoke motor insurance product designed for women, offering comprehensive coverage against accidents, fire, theft, and other unforeseen incidents that could damage a policyholder’s car. The plan comes with 24/7 emergency roadside assistance for female car owners, delivered in partnership with AA Rescue, and includes a unique rewards programme featuring discounts at spas, wellness centres, and related services.
Dr. Odiri Oginni, Managing Director of United Capital Asset Management, highlighted that the partnership reflects the Group’s core focus on women’s empowerment. He noted that financial independence and personal wellness are deeply intertwined, and events like *Yoga and Money Meet Up* help women connect both sides of their lives. He referenced United Capital’s Wealth for Women Fund, which offers women a secure, structured platform to invest and build long‑term financial security.
The event positions Heirs Insurance Group and United Capital as key players in bridging the gender gap in financial literacy and protection, helping Nigerian women use insurance, investment, and planning tools to grow their wealth and confidence. Heirs Insurance Group is the insurance arm of Heirs Holdings, a leading pan‑African investment group present in 24 countries, while United Capital operates as a major financial services provider in Nigeria, Ghana, and Côte d’Ivoire, recognised by the Financial Times as one of Africa’s fastest‑growing companies.
