Last year, Berkshire Hathaway launched a new insurance policy in Asia to enable firms to deal with increasing incidents of fraud.
Dubbed as Commercial Crime Insurance, this policy offers coverage against traditional employee crime and external crimes.
The company also started underwriting casualty and construction insurance in France last year.
