COMPANY AT A GLANCE
LIC (International) BSC (C) came into existence on the 20th of July, 1989 in the Kingdom of Bahrain in partnership with International Agencies Co. Ltd. (Intercol), with the objective of providing life insurance cover to the Indian Diaspora in GCC countries. The journey of LIC (International) BSC (C) in the past 32 years is an exemplary story of sharing and fulfilling dreams and prosperity of thousands of NRIs. The Company operates in 4 GCC countries: Bahrain, UAE (Dubai and Abu Dhabi), Kuwait and Oman.
