VSure Expands Into The UK To Deliver Digital Insurance To Small Businesses

Malaysia’s first on-demand lifestyle digital insurer approved by the Central Bank of Malaysia under the Fintech Regulatory Sandbox, announced its expansion to the United Kingdom at the High Commission of Malaysia in London. The expansion into the UK aims to modernise the traditional insurance market by revolutionising the digital insurance landscape, and to make it affordable for small businesses to access insurance collectively.

“Our launch in the UK represents a significant step forward for the company in becoming a serious player in using technology to revolutionise the insurance industry globally. Having a foothold in the UK and partnering up with local players will give us a strong platform and profile to continue expanding internationally. We are also proud to have the support of the ecosystem from the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) for our growth plans,” commented VSure Group’s Co-founder, CEO & Managing Director Eddy Wong. 

The establishment of VSure UK at the Malaysian High Commission in London also saw the company announcing its strategic partnership with Pro MGA Global Solutions and McGill & Partners with the support of MDEC and the Malaysian High Commission. 

“VSure is an innovative and revolutionary scale-up that is transforming the traditional insurance industry. MDEC is proud to have supported VSure in their journey, especially through participation in the MDEC x Alibaba Ant Financial 10×1000 Leadership & Innovator Program, MDEC’s eBerkat platform and Southeast Asia Tech Innovators Workshop. 

“VSure’s expansion to the UK is in line with the goals and vision of Malaysia Digital, the national strategic initiative to enable Malaysian businesses to play a leading part in the global digital economy. We congratulate VSure on their expansion and look forward to working closely with them to drive the development of Malaysia’s Digital focus sectors, particularly Fintech and the Islamic Digital Economy,” MDEC CEO, Mahadhir Aziz. 

As part of the announcement, Gary Ross, was appointed as the VSure UK CEO to further solidify VSure’s presence in the UK. Gary has over 30 years of experience in the UK insurance industry and has held numerous leadership roles in various organisations over the course of his distinguished career.
