On offer are insurances for - travel, for child's education and senior citizens. The insurance logos play an important part as the fascia of the company; the customer has decided to confide in. A distinct and clear identity helps both- the company to relate to the customer and vice-versa.
The insurance sector is large and many big corporate have diversified into various sub-categories. They lure people to buy coverage, invest in policies and pay premium annually. It is a big business and quite profitable. Many players compete with each other to remain in public domain. Naturally each company needs branding and awareness with the investors.

Like health care companies, insurance companies are also service providers. They need serious and very communicative branding with an underlying message that attracts the policy holder. Since insurance cover comes with many risks, any company offering a group of policies needs a careful communication with prospective customers. There fore designing the logos for such organisations needs in depth research of the insurance sector. The branding exercise will encompass the values and policies of the companies. It will also have simple, inspirational and effective icon which pleases the public.
