Viriyah Employees More than 6,500 Viriyah Employees 12 ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Message from Managing Director The overall Thai economy growth in 2019 suffered a decline relative to the global trade slowdown as a result of the trade war between China and the United States. Consequently, Thailand’s GDP sank to a record low in the past 5 years while the growth rate of the non-life insurance business dropped by 6.12% from the previous year due to the lower consumer purchasing power in relation to the global economy. Although the sales of The Viriyah Insurance Public Company Limited had a growth rate of only 2.6%, the company is still ranked No. 1 after holding the largest market share for 28 consecutive years. The success of the company stems from our determination to continuously improve the services and insurance practices to earn the trust of our customers and alliances. In 2019, we developed three innovations to maximize our operations as follows: • The development of Big Data and Data Driven Technology which will be a tool to help the company understand and meet the needs of the customers and partners more efficiently • The development of technology for partner connectivity through the Application Programming Interface (API) which helps the company to get more connection and access to its target group through business alliances or partners quickly • The development of technology for Claims Services which is a perfect solution to facilitate our customers; for example, they can file a claim via a video call to reduce the vehicle damage inspection time The company’s operations in 2020 are likely to experience great challenges and some fluctuation from the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and industry. Since the exact course of this pandemic is difficult to predict, the company needs to keep up with the situation and find ways to quickly adapt itself to mitigate this critical impact. THE VIRIYAH INSURANCE 13 One of them is to ensure efficient and flexible operations by implementing the decentralization policy and maintain integrity in all sectors across the society. In addition, we are determined to develop proper technology in the digital era and meet the needs of the customers so that they can get access to our service quickly, accurately, and fairly. On behalf of the Board of The Viriyah Insurance Public Company Limited, I would like to thank the customers, agents, brokers, and alliances in every sector for your continuous trust in the company as your insurance provider. I would also like to extend our appreciation to all the executives and employees who are the important force that helps create new things and drive our business in a steady growth. The Company will continue to follow the code of conduct and corporate governance policy that is in accordance with our “Fairness is Our Policy” principle so that we can remain to be the insurance choice for Thai people and society as always. The Company will continue to follow the code of conduct and corporate governance policy that is in accordance with our “Fairness is Our Policy” (Ms. Suvaporn Thongthew) Managing Director 14 ANNUAL REPORT 2019 Milestones of Success 1947 1974 1979 1982 February 3, 1947 January 14, 1974 January 16, 1979 February 22, 1982 Million baht The title of Car Insurance Professional paid-up the Company non-life Insurer 5 capital was changed to “Asiatic To become a professional Distributing non-life insurer, Insurance Miscellaneous the company was retitled Fire Insurance Company Insurance once again to be Limited.” “The Viriyah Insurance Co., Ltd.” Ever since, The company expanded the business has gained its insurance business to the acceptance and trust include car insurance and of the Thai people all along.
