Another milestone for Malayan Insurance

-

Malayan Insurance has won two awards from the 7th Insurance Asia Awards for its exceptiona­l delivery of customer-centric products and services that have helped uplift the lives of Filipinos during the pandemic.

The country’s leading non-life insurance company received the “Domestic General Insurer of the Year” and “New Insurance Product of the Year” for Pet Care.

Malayan’s responsive­ness to the market’s current needs and nimbleness in adopting digital transforma­tion for better customer access was instrument­al in clinching the “Domestic General Insurer of the Year” award.

Its line-up of responsive products from travel, personal accident, pet, automotive, and property insurance, plus their thoughtful inclusions and benefits such as unlimited Medimate telemedici­ne services and Covid-19 coverage, has gained the confidence of thousands of Filipinos.

Malayan Insurance continues to dominate the non-life insurance sector affirmed by the Insurance Commission which recorded P14.21 billion gross premiums written in 2020, representi­ng the highest GPW during that period.

The company also remains one of the country’s largest non-life insurers, with P39.24 billion in total assets in the same year.

At the same time, Malayan’s innovative protection plan for pet owners and their canine pets took the “New Insurance Product of the Year” award.

The first product of its kind launched in the Philippine­s, Pet Care enabled pet owners to fully address the medical needs of their dogs without straining their finances.

This new product reimburses policyhold­ers for any veterinary treatment or vet hospital confinemen­t if the insured dog gets into an accident or suddenly falls ill. It also has a personal accident, owner’s liability, accidental death, disablemen­t, and dismemberm­ent coverage for dog owners.

Pet Care’s affordabil­ity and extensive coverage paved the way for responsibl­e pet ownership at a time when pet adoptions and rehoming became a trend because of the pandemic.

Aside from Insurance Asia Awards, Malayan Insurance also recently received a Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and a Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating outlook at “bbb+” (Stable) from insurer rating organizati­on A.M. Best.

The Insurance Asia Awards is a recognitio­n program given by the Insurance Asia publicatio­n, focusing on insurance companies, investors, profession­als, and policymake­rs impacting change and innovation to the industry across Asia.

Malayan Insurance offers affordable and reliable insurance products such as Travel Master with Covid-19 Coverage, Vital Cover with Covid-19 Coverage, AutoMaster, Home Protect and Pet Care.
