Life insurer VietinBank Aviva (VietinAviva) on May 9 officially opened an agent office in Hanoi more than three years after starting operation in Vietnam by selling its product through bancassurance.

VietinAviva, which started operation in October of 2011, is a joint venture between Vietnam’s VietinBank and the UK insurer Aviva plc.

“VietinAviva inherits the value of Aviva and the prestige and support of Vietinbank,” said VietinAviva’s general director Nguyen Ngoc Trang at the opening ceremony.

In 2015, VietinAviva is going to open agent offices in Ho Chi Minh City and Danang. The company plans to soon have a network of agent offices throughout the country. All of VietinAviva’s existing sales points are equipped with the mPOS, one of the newest ways to pay insurance fee. Customers can also pay using their smart phones.

In 2014, VietinAviva’s premium grew by 264 per cent on year. The company is one of the three life insurers with the highest growth in the year.
