Broker BPL extends activities to Japan

BPL, a UK-based broker specializing in credit and political risk insurance (CPRI), is planning to open a new office in Japan.

The Tokyo-based office will be led by Kenichi “Ken” Iwakura. Its establishment remains subject to approval from Japanese regulatory authorities to conduct insurance brokerage activities in the country.

Through this expansion, BPL aims to further strengthen its international presence in the CPRI market, where it already operates in London, Paris, New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Geneva.
