About This Cover
Why Life Insurance?
In Uganda, fewer than 5% of adults hold life insurance. When a breadwinner dies, families lose income, children leave school, and savings are depleted in weeks. Acentria Uganda Life Insurance changes this — with flexible plans starting at UGX 20,000 per year, payable via mobile money, designed for Ugandan families at every income level.
