The partnership marks a defining moment for the insurance sector in Sri Lanka, introducing a new model of sustainability-linked customer engagement. For every motor and travel insurance policy sold from October 30, 2025, Allianz Lanka will contribute funds—at no cost to customers—toward reforestation, habitat restoration and biodiversity conservation projects countrywide.

This is more than a CSR gesture; it is a strategic realignment of business and sustainability—a move that reinforces Allianz’s global commitment to ESG leadership, while setting a benchmark for responsible corporate citizenship in Sri Lanka.

“Allianz has always believed that protecting what matters most goes beyond insurance, it’s about safeguarding the planet and the future we all share, Prashant Grover, Chief Executive Officer and Country Manager of Allianz Insurance Lanka Limited, told journal-

ists at a media briefing held at One Galle Face.
