National Life MDRT Training Program and Agent Recognition
19th January 2026, Kathmandu
National Life Insurance Company Limited (NLICL) has successfully concluded its grand MDRT 2026 Award and Training Program at the Dusit Thani Himalayan Resort in Dhulikhel. The event, held on Magh 5, 2082 (January 19, 2026), served as a prestigious platform to recognize 83 top-performing insurance agents who achieved global Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) benchmarks through their exceptional premium collections in 2025.
National Life MDRT Training
The program was graced by National Life Chairperson Mrs. Prema Rajya Laxmi Singh as the Chief Guest and was presided over by the company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO). By combining international-level motivational training with professional recognition, National Life has reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining its leadership position in Nepal’s life insurance sector.
Recognition of Global Excellence: TOT, COT, and MDRT
The Million Dollar Round Table is an international, independent association of the world’s leading life insurance and financial services professionals. Achievement in this forum is divided into three tiers based on premium targets. For 2026, National Life agents showcased remarkable professionalism:
The 83 honored agents included:
Top of the Table (TOT): 2 agents achieved this highest tier, requiring an annual premium collection of approximately Rs 32.38 million.
Court of the Table (COT): 4 agents reached this elite level, with a target of approximately Rs 16.19 million.
MDRT Qualifiers: 77 agents met the standard MDRT benchmark of Rs 5.396 million in premium collection.
These achievers represent the growing competitiveness of Nepali insurance professionals on a global stage. Notably, the Tinkune Branch was specially honored for producing the highest number of MDRT-qualified agents, highlighting the importance of effective local leadership and support systems.
Professional Growth through International Training
A major highlight of the event was a specialized training session conducted by the renowned international sales and motivational trainer, Kazim Raza. As the CEO of Zaidi Corporation and Kazim Edutech, Raza has trained over 300,000 insurance advisors across South Asia.
The session focused on “Concept-Based Selling,” moving away from traditional product pushing to solving client-specific financial needs. Key areas of the training included:

Ethical Sales Practices: Emphasizing transparency and long-term client trust.
Advanced Business Planning: Goal-setting strategies to hit COT and TOT targets in 2026.
Client Relationship Management: Sustaining a career in life insurance through high retention rates.
Participants noted that exposure to international trainers like Raza significantly boosts their confidence and provides them with modern tools to compete in an increasingly digital and informed market.
Strategic Vision for the Agency Network
Addressing the gathering, the CEO of National Life Insurance highlighted that the company has initiated new practices to prioritize its agency network, which he described as the “backbone” of the company. With the insurance market in Nepal becoming more competitive, National Life is focusing on data-driven motivation.
The “Chase Your MDRT” monthly incentive scheme was praised for keeping agents focused on their year-end goals throughout the fiscal year. By providing structured incentives and international-level capacity building, the company aims to increase insurance penetration in Nepal, which currently sees only about 6.8 million active beneficiaries nationwide.
National Life in the 2026 Insurance Landscape
According to recent data from Beemapost, National Life ranks as the second-leading company in Nepal for MDRT 2026 qualifiers, trailing only behind Nepal Life. Despite a slight decline from the 100 qualifiers in the previous year, the quality of achievement—particularly in the TOT and COT categories—remains high.
The company continues to invest heavily in its human capital across its extensive branch network, which spans all seven provinces of Nepal. By aligning local talent with international standards, National Life is not just improving individual agent performance but is also strengthening the overall maturity of the Nepali insurance ecosystem.
Conclusion
The National Life MDRT Training Program in Dhulikhel stands as a testament to the company’s forward-looking leadership. Through the combination of global recognition, expert training from Kazim Raza, and performance-based incentives, the company is ensuring that its agents are prepared for the challenges of 2026 and beyond. For policyholders, this means access to more professional, ethical, and skilled insurance consultants dedicated to building long-term financial freedom.
