Fairfirst Insurance has been named Best Marine Insurance Company in Sri Lanka 2026 at the World Business Outlook Awards, marking a significant recognition of its strength and expertise in a segment that plays a vital role in supporting Sri Lanka’s trade and business activity.

The recognition comes from World Business Outlook, an international business and finance publication that uses its awards to recognise organisations demonstrating strong achievement, contribution, commitment and business excellence. Its awards are determined following evaluation and scrutiny of nominees by its editorial team and an independent jury, with a focus on identifying deserving leaders and organisations across industries.

For Fairfirst, the award recognises the confidence businesses, brokers, and other stakeholders place in its Marine Insurance capabilities. With goods constantly moving across borders and through complex supply chains, Marine Insurance carries a significant responsibility, particularly where a loss can have substantial financial implications. Fairfirst provides Marine Insurance solutions covering cargo transported by sea, air and land, supported by specialised underwriting and claims expertise.

Commenting on the recognition, Ravishankar Wickneswaran, CEO of Fairfirst Insurance, said, “We are truly grateful for this recognition and, above all, for the trust our customers place in us to protect their goods as they move across markets. Marine Insurance comes with significant responsibilities, and this award encourages us to keep raising the bar in how we serve our customers. Our people, together with the strength and expertise of the Fairfax Group, give us a strong foundation to keep moving forward.”

For Fairfirst, the accolade marks an important milestone in strengthening its position in Sri Lanka’s Marine Insurance sector. It also provides further momentum to deepen its expertise and continue evolving with the changing needs of the businesses it serves. Above all, it reinforces a commitment to keep earning the trust that customers place in Fairfirst every time they choose the company to protect what matters to their business.
