New Jubilee Life (formerly: Commercial Union Life Assurance
Company Pakistan Limited) commenced operations in June 1996 as
subsidiary of CU International Insurance. Later, when CUII
merged with a couple of other international insurers, they
decided to concentrate in developed markets only, mainly
Europe. Accordingly, they sold their holdings in a number of
countries including Pakistan.
Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED), an organization
based in Switzerland and New Jubilee Insurance Company
purchased the majority shareholding in Commercial Union Life
Insurance Company Pakistan Limited and renamed it to New
Jubilee Life Insurance Company. Hence, New Jubilee Life is now
effectively functioning as a subsidiary of AKFED.
Group Life
Insurance
We have established ourselves as one of the major local
privatized insurers in the Group Life domain. This was the
first product line with which we had a fabulous take off and
which provided great support to institute the companys
foothold. In the short span of time since 1996 when we began
selling group life insurance, our group life portfolio expanded
to contain more than 650 corporate clients and we insure
currently more than 250,000 lives.
HealthCare
International
This product presents different and better features in relation
to the similar schemes being offered. We have been able to add
to the Group Health client list steadily since its launch in
1998. This has brought quality of differentiation to our
portfolio. The system that is being used for Health Insurance
is the best and most advanced one available in the market. We
offer optimally high coverage limits to be enjoyed by the
insured and his family. We have received an enormous response
from the market due to the backing of very well developed
network of quality hospitals.
Group Pension
Under Group Pension a Defined Contribution plan is offered
which reduces risk for the employer as against a Defined
Benefit plan. It is an innovative scheme launched in 1998 and
we stand no local competition in this field. It helped gain an
edge over the insurance industry.
