For general insurance, IFG encourages companies such as Jasindo to increase the market share of the general insurance business and become the number one market leader in targeted business lines. One of the strategic steps taken is to develop the role of insurance companies in the IFG ecosystem into a risk manager partner for partners and customers.

Sistha emphasized that her party fully supports efforts to eradicate corruption currently being carried out by the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) against past practices that occurred in Jasindo.

We respect the ongoing legal process. This is of course in line with our efforts to make improvements and strengthen, including fixing the focus and business model of Holding Members for healthy and sustainable growth," he said.

As is known, two cases of Jasindo's law that were being processed at the KPK occurred before 2019. With the spirit of improvement and strengthening, since 2021 Jasindo has carried out transformations in all lines, both business and governance.

Sistha added, by encouraging Jasindo to focus on the company's core business, including in the cargo, property, engineering, marine hull, motorized vehicles, satellites, and liability businesses, this transformation has an impact on the company's positive performance growth.
