Sohar International’s 100% Stake in Bima Insurance Portal: Implications for Investors and Entrepreneurs in Oman
Sohar International Bank has requested preliminary approval from the Central Bank of Oman (CBO) to make a non-binding offer for up to 100% of its stake in Insurance House (Bima).
The bank disclosed this intention in a recent filing to the Muscat Stock Exchange (MSX). Bima stands out as Oman’s first fully digital insurance portal, licensed by the Financial Services Authority (FSA). It offers customers the ability to compare and purchase various insurance products—including motor, travel, domestic, medical, and credit life—from multiple insurers through an intuitive online platform.
