Asia Mortgage Insurance
More than 20 years of market experience.
First-Loss Credit Protection and More
Arch MI’s strength and innovation were extended to the Hong Kong geographic and mortgage markets with the acquisition of Arch MI Asia Limited (formerly AIG United Guaranty Insurance (Asia) Limited), which began operations in 1999 as one of the first mortgage insurance providers in the territory.
Arch MI Asia has been operating a residential mortgage insurance and reinsurance business to help lenders in Hong Kong make loans to more people while lowering credit-related risk for those lenders. The business complements local government and monetary regulators’ long-term financial policies.
