About Company | Discovery
When Discovery was established as a small specialist health insurer two decades ago, we made a clear and profound promise: to make people healthier. Driven by constant innovation over the years, we created a multifaceted, integrated financial services organisation and expanded our original promise to include enhancing and protecting lives. Throughout our constant innovation and ongoing growth, our founding ideal has remained unchanged – making people healthier and enhancing and protecting their lives has evolved into our core purpose that frames our ambition, strategy and business methodology.
Our core purpose is expressed in each of the health and financial products we offer to our nearly six million clients across four continents. Discovery’s products are focused on some of the most fundamental areas of people’s lives – their health and wellness and the financial security of their families. These are the critical areas where we aim to add significant value and make a real difference in the lives of our clients.
We have through continuous innovation designed pioneering products and services that help our clients to improve their health and wellness, protect their financial future and enhance the quality of their lives. This client-centric approach lies at the heart of the way we do business and is the common thread running through all our products.
By using powerful financial and behavioural structures that meet people’s complex needs in sustainable ways, Discovery’s products and services have been created to deliver real value, protection and efficiency for our clients. This stimulates consumer demand for our products, which in turn leads to rapid organic growth and superior returns for our shareholders. Looking to the future, our goal is to be one of the best insurance organisations in the world, one that is renowned for excellence, innovation and financial strength.
