Founded in 2008 and based in Jakarta, the insurance intermediary specialises in serving a broad spectrum of clients, offering corporate lines and employee benefits insurance.  

Singapore-headquartered bolttech acquired a majority stake in Axle Asia in October 2022. 

The insurtech said the rebranding and renaming strengthen its offering in the Indonesian market as it keeps growing its portfolio of corporate and consumer insurance solutions. 

It will not affect bolttech Indonesia’s current services or agreements with partners and customers, ensuring continuity in their offerings.
