Having a presence in this international business and financial centre enables us to lay solid foundations for enduring relationships with our global clients and producers through an enhanced product and service offering."
"Our immediate focus in Malaysia will be on the same classes of business we offer through our Singapore office. These are: Property D&F and Treaty, Construction, Marine, Power Generation, Healthcare, Financial Lines and Casualty. We will also look to develop new lines of business as our experience in the market deepens."

We have been part of the Lloyd’s China platform since 2016 and last year saw us add new products and capabilities to our hub in Singapore including: Healthcare, Life Science and Financial Lines whilst attracting significant talent to the organisation across both new and existing lines as well as claims. Asia is a strategic market for CNA Hardy and we are very pleased with how our business is developing here."
