Group Medical Insurance

Medical Insurance is compulsory in the UAE - with lots of options to navigate, see how Holborn Assets can help

Get started

What is Group Medical Insurance?

UAE companies are now bound by law to provide group medical insurance, which provides private, scaleable medical care for staff. Even outside of the UAE, ensuring your scheme meets with the unique demands of local and expatriate populations can be challenging. A huge range of choice and scheme differences can make it a minefield choosing the most appropriate provider for your employees.

Our advisers can provide a detailed understanding of the market; identify the most suitable insurers for your situation; and negotiate compliant, comprehensive, and cost-effective cover on your behalf. Balancing cover with benefit comprehensiveness, bespoke to the demands and needs of your particular industry, is our speciality.

What are the benefits of having Group Medical Insurance?

  • The provision of medical insurance for employees is now a legal requirement for companies in the UAE
  • Any expenses an employer incurs related to medical insurance are 100% tax-deductible as ordinary business expenses
  • Whether medical insurance is compulsory in your SME’s country of operation or not, providing a tiered system of cover for employees can be a cost-effective morale booster (as well prove entirely cost-effective)

It may seem an obvious thing to say but our clients are our business, so naturally when selecting advisers to work with only the most qualified and experienced need apply. The majority originate from the tough regulatory regime of the UK where excellence in all areas is the gold standard. However, we also have specialist financial planners from Ireland, South Africa, America and India to cater to all your wealth management needs, whether it be sourcing you that low cost mortgage for a UK property, protecting your family with a robust life insurance package or ensuring you have saved enough money for retirement.

History and heritage

Holborn Assets was established in 1998 and is widely considered to be the financial services company of choice in the expatriate market it serves. No other independent company can match our expertise or depth of proposition. We have therefore always felt at home headquartered in Dubai, the world's fastest growing City State and one of the economic wonders of the world.

Holborn Assets has regulated operations in Europe, Asia and South Africa. The corporate DNA that has underpinned our growth is simple: we are passionate about helping people put the right money, in the right place, at the right time.

We are a friendly, multi-award winning family company with an international footprint and British values of integrity and respect for all.
