PT Sun Life Financial Indonesia (“Sun Life Indonesia”) is excited to announce a strategic milestone in its mission to expand and enhance Sharia-based financial protection services. With approval from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), Sun Life Indonesia intends to separate (spin-off) its Sharia Business Unit into a fully independent Sharia insurance company. This initiative demonstrates our commitment to meeting the increasing demand for Sharia-compliant financial solutions and underscores our dedication to supporting Indonesia's Sharia financial sector with tailored services for our clients’ needs.
The new Sharia insurance company is planned to operate exclusively in the Sharia insurance sector, offering clients enhanced products and services specifically designed to align with Sharia principles. By creating a dedicated Sharia insurance entity, Sun Life Indonesia can provide clients with more specialized, relevant options to meet their evolving needs. This focused approach will support innovations in Sharia product development and ensure a more efficient, customer-centered experience.
To facilitate a seamless transition, all current policyholder portfolios of the Shariah unit will be automatically transferred to the new company, with all policy rights and benefits intact. The entire process is being conducted under OJK’s guidance, ensuring full compliance with regulatory requirements. Clients can rest assured that their existing rights, obligations, and benefits will be preserved, and no action will be required from them during the transfer.
Sun Life Indonesia remains committed to delivering uninterrupted service and support throughout this transition. The plan for the spin-off process is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2026. We are dedicated to transparency and will keep clients informed every step of the way, providing the same level of service and support that they have come to expect from Sun Life Indonesia.
This transition marks an important new chapter for Sun Life Indonesia and its Sharia Business Unit in Indonesia, opening opportunities for innovative Sharia-compliant solutions tailored to Indonesian clients’ unique needs.
Sincerely,
PT Sun Life Indonesia
