INDUSTRY.co.id - Semarang, As the capital as well as the main buffer of economic growth in Central Java, Semarang experienced a very rapid growth with an increasing rate of economic growth.
The fifth largest city in Indonesia has a population of nearly 1.7 million people, so it has a huge business potential.
Seeing this potential, Generali Indonesia continues to strengthen its agency distribution network, one of which is with the presence of Generali Money Smart agent office located in Patimura Block 6, JL. Patimura No.5 Semarang.
With the presence of this agency office, Generali is increasingly expanding the market in Central Java to meet the needs of Semarang and surrounding community insurance.
Based on data from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), the growth of literacy rate and financial inclusion in Central Java has always been positive with a percentage of 33.51% and 66.23% in 2016. This indicates the level of awareness of the people of Central Java for higher insurance.

Today Generali has dedicated innovative systems and products including the AUTO Risks Management System (ARMS), an investment protection arm that helps customers manage investment risks automatically, created in 2011 with a total managed fund of 4.6 trillion Rupiah.
Wianto Chen, Chief Agency Officer of Generali Indonesia, said that the development of the insurance industry in Central Java and Yogyakarta shows that growth always increases.
