  "summary": "Enterprise Life Assurance Nigeria Limited has successfully raised its paid-up share capital to over N18.7bn, surpassing the N10bn regulatory minimum set by the National Insurance Commission. This significant milestone positions the insurer to underwrite larger risks and deepen digital penetration across Nigeria's underinsured market. The company's Managing Director and CEO, Nelson Akerele, emphasized that the additional capital enables Enterprise Life to write larger risks, expand into new markets, and accelerate technology-led insurance offerings targeted at Nigeria's untapped middle-class and mass-market segments.",
