This is not the first year that ROSNO has won this award. Last year, the company was awarded in the nomination "For the most incredible insured accident reimbursed by the insurer". This nomination was won due to the support provided by the company to the newly-born Russian citizen Sergey Korsakov. (In September, the company assumed all costs of medical services provided to this prematurely born baby in a Turkish clinic.)

Since the beginning of the year, the following unique insurance programs have been launched: "KASKO Skazka" (Magic MOD), "Pod Ohranoy" (Under Protection, for security companies), "Sezon Ohoty" (Hunting Season, for hunters). Among the latest initiatives promoted by ROSNO is the rarity cars insurance program "Autovintage". Presently, ROSNO’s clients can choose from over 130 types of voluntary and obligatory insurance.

"Nothing can be more valuable for us than recognition by the clients themselves. And the choice made by readers of the Family Budget magazine in favour of ROSNO in the nomination "Most Extensive Range of Insurance Services" is very important for us, since it serves as evidence that the Market Management concept we have been implementing for the last one year and a half is fully justified. Under this approach, product development constitutes an entire business process based upon constant interaction with clients and analysis of the needs of our insurants. The development of new products involves many divisions, and we actively engage all our employees to participate in this work, thus making this victory a victory for the entire team. "The top priority in our business is to provide prompt responses to the changing needs of our clients and quickly adjust our offers to meet new economic realities. I am pleased to note that this approach is now receiving public recognition", says Mr. Hannes S. Chopra, CEO of ROSNO.
