Aviva NDB rewarded the company’s most outstanding performers at a glittering awards night that brought together 800 wealth planners who have assured prosperity and peace of mind to their customers. Their achievements were a proven testimony to the trust and confidence the award winners have gained through dedication and commitment to customer care. They have succeeded in attaining impressive sales records outstripping their colleagues.

Managing director of Aviva NDB, Shah Rouf said: “Our sales people are the spear point of our business and their proud achievements should be applauded and acknowledged, not only to reward excellent performance but more importantly, to demonstrate to all our customers how appreciative we are of our front liners. They are after all the closest and most vital link between policyholders and the company. They have done a tremendous job during a difficult year, and I sincerely congratulate all those who have proved their mettle and achieved brilliantly.”

Charming D G A Swarna, the only lady wealth planner among the top six, was the shining star, winning the coveted honour of Best Financial Services Advisor – Life. Her performance entitled her to the position of “Top of the Table” at the Million Dollar Round Table conference attended only by the world’s highest ranking sales professionals. In addition, she has secured another accolade, the highly prestigious International Quality Award (IQA) presented by the world’s premier Life Insurance Marketing and Research Association. These are the world’s highest achievements an insurance sales person can accomplish.

Chaminda Dissanayake won the award for the Best Team for Life and Piyal Ratnayake walked away with the trophy for Best Distribution Manager – Life.

Among the general insurance achievers, Lankanatha Meegahapola became the Best Sales Person, with Mahesh Jayawarna receiving the Best Team award followed by Malanga Galappaththi who was presented with the Best Business Development Manager award.

Apart from the top winners, there were 18 Gold award recipients and two who received the Platinum award. There were altogether 16 MDRT and nine IQA winners.

Addressing the gathering, Upul Wijesinghe, director distribution – direct sales force, said: “I congratulate our award winning wealth planners for surpassing target expectations and truly proving themselves to be ‘The Team you can Trust’. Their performance is an inspiration for all Wealth Planners. This year we have an apt theme of the convention: ’Insurance powered by Technology’. Our Aviva NDB wealth planners are being equipped with laptops to meet today’s challenging IT-savvy environment and our customers can look forward to a faster, more efficient service even from remote locations.”
