Source: Middle East Insurance Review | Jun 2015
EFU Life Assurance has tied up with JS Bank and KASB Modabara to distribute its family takaful products, marketed under the “Hemayah” brand.
JS Bank is a leading provider of wealth management solutions in Pakistan, including bancassurance and bancatakaful products. KASB Modaraba is an Islamic financial institution, providing financial solutions under the musharaka model.
Mr Taher G Sachak, CEO and Managing Director of EFU Life, said: “The introduction of bancatakaful solutions offers us an added opportunity to expand our product range and provides more opportunities to JS Bank’s customers for their long-term financial planning needs.”
He added: “KASB Modaraba is a leading Modaraba with a strong customer base and we are proud to launch a takaful distribution partnership with them.”
EFU Life received a licence to offer family takaful products through a window operation this year, and has since tied up with Dubai Islamic Bank Pakistan Limited and United Bank Limited.
