About Etiqa
The formation of Etiqa started in 2005 with the merger of Malaysia National
Insurance Berhad and Takaful Nasional Sdn Bhd with Maybank Ageas previously
known as Mayban Fortis, a Maybank insurance and takaful operator that includes
Mayban General Assurance, Mayban Life Assurance, and Mayban Takaful. Due
to this merger, the whole insurance and takaful group under the Maybank Group
underwent a rebranding in 2007 and became Etiqa Insurance Berhad (EIB) and
Etiqa Takaful Berhad (ETB). In addition to offering general insurance, life
insurance, general takaful, and family takaful, EIB and ETB are composite
licensees in the insurance and takaful industry. They do this through a variety of
sales channels, including agency energy, insurance and takaful branches,
Maybank branches, other banks, the internet, and automated teller machines
(ATMs). In 2018, Etiqa Takaful started running a General Takaful business licence
under the name Etiqa General Takaful Berhad (EGTB) and a Family Takaful
business licence under the name Etiqa Family Takaful Berhad (EFTB) in
compliance with the Financial Services Act 2013 that was enforced by Bank
Negara Malaysia (BNM).
The insurance industry has always been changing, helping people adjust to new
economic situations and meet the higher standards of safety, transparency, and
effectiveness that financial markets and people want. On account of the rising
recurrence of vulnerability, bosses and business should look for more elevated levels
of wellbeing through original methodologies to solvency, oversight and hazard the
board techniques. Protection firms create pay by facing a challenge.
