KUALA LUMPUR, July 9 (Bernama) -- Generali Malaysia has once again proven its leadership by clinching the International General Insurer of the Year – Malaysia and New Insurance Product of the Year – Malaysia (Life Insurance) awards at the prestigious Insurance Asia Awards 2025 held on 8 July 2025 at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Singapore. 

Speaking on the double win, Fabrice Benard, Chief Executive Officer of Generali Insurance Malaysia Berhad and Country Head of Generali Entities in Malaysia said, “This remarkable honour reflects the unwavering dedication of our team, the enduring trust of our customers, and the invaluable support of our partners. It is a powerful affirmation of our purpose and values.”
 
The continued recognition affirms Generali Malaysia’s Lifetime Partner 27: Driving Excellence strategy and its strong presence in a dynamic market. Following the full integration of its general and life insurance businesses under the Generali Malaysia brand, the company has streamlined operations to support long-term, customer-focused growth. In the past year, Generali Malaysia modernised and integrated its branch network to deliver seamless omnichannel experiences, culminating in the launch of Menara Generali — a new headquarters uniting teams from four separate locations to foster collaboration and innovation.

With sustainability as the foundation of its strategy, Generali Malaysia advances its sustainability commitments through carbon-neutral initiatives, ESG-integrated investments, and community support programmes such as Project Bright Beginnings under The Human Safety Net (THSN), launched in collaboration with Suriana Welfare Society Malaysia to establish a preschool for underserved children at PPR Kg Muhibbah.
 
The company also partnered with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to address protection gaps for vulnerable groups and help SMEs access insurance and risk financing solutions to boost climate resilience. Further demonstrating its dedication to social good, Generali Malaysia hosted the second Generali Malaysia Run 2025, which attracted over 11,000 participants in celebration of health and unity. The event raised RM100,000 through registration fees and merchandise sales, which was contributed to Suriana Welfare Society Malaysia and Yayasan Generasi Gemilang to support early childhood education programmes and learning tools for children and families in underserved communities. These efforts reflect Generali Malaysia’s commitment to creating value not only for its business but also for the community and the environment, helping to build a stronger, fairer society for all.
 
In addition to this extraordinary achievement, Generali Life Insurance Malaysia was honoured with the “New Insurance Product of the Year – Malaysia” award for its innovative GenMedic – Health Protection for All, a flexible medical plan offering high-coverage, enhanced cancer protection, and cost-saving co-insurance options, designed to provide essential healthcare protection for all Malaysians.
