Assurex Global Expands in Asia/Pacific Region
The world’s largest network of independent insurance brokers, Assurex Global, has added a new firm in Malaysia, Insfield Insurance Brokers Sdn Bhd. Headquartered in Selangor, Malaysia, Insfield further expands Assurex Global’s coverage in the expanding Asia/Pacific region, offering a full range of insurance, risk management, loss control and Takaful. “So many of our brokers have clients with exposures in this region of the world, and Insfield gives us vital expertise and on-site review capabilities to better protect our client’s interests,” said John Rodwell, Assurex Global’s VP of International Business Development. “Their location in Selangor, the most populous of the 13 states of Malaysia, gives them a front row seat to developments in the region. In turn, all Assurex Global brokers receive this influx of rich industry information and knowledge from Insfield,” he added.
“Assurex Global has a rigorous review process before an invitation to join the network can be extended and we were confident we would prove a perfect fit for the network’s goals, as we’ve built a substantial business in Malaysia since our founding in 1976,” said Len Meng Fui, Managing Director of Insfield. “We look forward to expanding international business opportunities between Malaysia and other countries.”
The addition of Insfield brings the total number of Assurex Global agencies or brokers to 109. The network achieved $29 billion in annual premium volume in 2008.
