Dubai, United Arab Emirates—15 November 2022—Strategic partner of Seed Group, a company of the Private Office of Sheikh Saeed bin Ahmed Al Maktoum, NewTech Insurance Brokers, has announced the appointment of Arvind Kashyapa as the new Chief Executive Officer as it looks to further widen its horizons and strengthen NewTech’s market standing in the MENA region’s booming market. 

Offering digital-first solutions for today’s discerning customers, NewTech continuously strives to bring insurance products that are customizable, affordable, and reliable to provide seamless, game-changing products.

After obtaining its broker’s license in November 2020, NewTech began trading in earnest by the second quarter of 2021. During this period, NewTech acquired new accounts and established relationships with a large number of insurers. On the basis of the strong foundation laid in 2021, the year 2022 proved to be successful for the company.

The new CEO, Arvind Kashyapa, brings with him over 40 years of experience, with almost 25 years in the UAE. Previously, for over 13 years, he worked as the CEO of an international Lloyd’s Broker, where he established the company in Dubai and grew the business to premium levels in excess of AED 750 million. 

Kashyapa will seek to establish NewTech as a major homegrown broker in the UAE and the region, strengthen the position of the company as a major reinsurance broker in the UAE, and work closely with Seed Group to bring a new perspective on insurance coverage to the associates and contacts.

The company is working towards integrating technology as a means to widen its reach, introduce new and innovative insurance products, align insurance broking with the social objectives of the national and regional governments, and plan and execute expansions in markets like Europe.

As part of the partnership, Seed Group has helped NewTech expand its operations in the Emirates and the wider Middle East, reach the right audience, access top decision-makers in the government as well as the private sectors, and make a mark in the highly diverse insurance market in the region.
