Establishment of Representative office in Cairo, Egypt


Tokio Marine Holdings, Inc. (“Tokio Marine”, President: Shuzo Sumi) will establish a representative office in Cairo, Egypt on 1st July 2010.

In January 2010 Tokio Marine, in partnership with Egypt Kuwait Holding Company, S.A.E. ("EKH", Chairman: Nasser Mohamed A. Al-Kharafi), launched Nile Family Takaful Company (a Shariah-compliant life insurance company) and Nile General Takaful Company (a Shariah-compliant non-life insurance company) based in Egypt.

The opening of the new representative office in Cairo will strengthen the market intelligence of Tokio Marine in the rapidly expanding Egyptian market as well as in the surrounding countries including Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Libya. In addition, seconding a representative to the Nile Takaful companies will allow Tokio Marine to utilise its relationship with EKH and the Nile Takaful Companies to enhance services to clients based in Egypt.
