General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC Re [4]) has decided to transfer its operations from Dubai Financial International Centre (DFIC) to GIFT City (Gujarat International Finance Tec-City), India. This decision is due to the non-renewal of GIC Re's license by the Dubai authorities.
Starting 3 July 2021, the Indian reinsurer's UAE subsidiary will no longer operate from DFIC.
However, the branch will continue to manage the operations in progress as at 3 July 2021.
GIC Re will now run its MENA business from GIFT City located in the state of Gujarat.
