CORE BUSINESS

AFI was established to ease the financial burden of individuals and families. While most individuals and families usually join burial societies to cover burial costs, the fact that most burial societies pay in kind (pay by rendering burial services, and not in cash), means that they do not provide for incidental funeral costs such as refreshments and catering.

AFI closes this gap and provides cover for incidental funeral costs such as refreshments and catering by:

  • Augmenting burial society schemes which usually pay out in kind by contributing much needed cash to bereaved families; and
  • Providing individuals; groups; and communities/villagers particularly working class families, the unemployed and indigent with money for incidental funeral costs such as groceries and catering.

With AFI, individuals and families enjoy the peace of mind that they will have the financial assistance needed during their time of need (financial security) and to ease their financial burden.

AFI pays out the full cover amount within forty eight (48) hours from the time a valid claim is lodged.
