Cornerstone Insurance Insight: Travelling abroad with insurance
Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Cornerstone Insurance Plc, Mr. Stephen Alangbo

As more Nigerians travel abroad for business, education and leisure, the need for reliable international travel insurance has become increasingly significant. Industry analysts note that travelling outside the country exposes individuals to unfamiliar risks, including medical emergencies and unexpected incidents that could lead to financial strain.
Cornerstone Insurance Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading insurance companies, has both tailor-made local and international travel health insurance plans for foreign travellers. The company’s International Travel Insurance policy is designed to cover insured persons while travelling outside the borders of Nigeria as fare-paying passengers on fully licensed standard aircraft.
The policy provides compensation in cases of accidental death and permanent disability. It also covers medical expenses incurred abroad as a result of accidents, as well as loss of luggage during the trip.
These benefits are particularly important given the high cost of medical care in many foreign countries and the logistical challenges that may arise from missing baggage. By securing comprehensive cover before departure, travellers can reduce exposure to unexpected financial burdens.
Cornerstone Insurance Plc, widely regarded as a dependable player in Nigeria’s insurance industry, is known for its strong service culture and commitment to prompt claims settlement.
With a growing portfolio of innovative products and customer-focused solutions, the company continues to provide protection that meets international travel needs.
As global mobility increases, industry observers say taking out adequate travel insurance remains a prudent step for Nigerians seeking peace of mind beyond the country’s borders.
