Retakaful client reception
Swiss Re celebrates Retakaful licence with client reception in Kuala Lumpur.
With a composite licence from Bank Negara Malaysia in hand, Swiss Re is able to offer Family and General Retakaful solutions to Takaful operators worldwide. Swiss Re Retakaful celebrated this milestone with a client reception at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Kuala Lumpur on 12 October 2009.
Marcel Omar Papp, head of the dedicated Retakaful operation in Kuala Lumpur, welcomed more than 50 guests who attended the reception and took the opportunity to highlight the clear value that Swiss Re Retakaful can deliver: the services of a full-service provider, the support of a well-respected Shari’a Board, innovative Takaful products, development of alternative distribution channels, the assurance of Swiss Re’s financial strength and capacity, and the opportunity to tap into the Group’s technical expertise and global resources.
