On April 1, 2010, NKSJ Holdings was launched as a holding company encompassing both Sompo Japan and Nipponkoa Insurance.


Tracing our roots back to 1960, Sompo Japan Hong Kong was firstly established as a branch office of The Yasuda Fire & Marine Insurance Company Limited, which was later merged with The Nissan Fire & Marine Insurance Company in 2002 to form Sompo Japan Insurance Inc.
As a major subsidiary of Sompo Japan Insurance Inc., William S.T. Lee Insurance Co. Ltd has been the general agent of The Yasuda Fire & Marine Insurance Company Limited since 1970 and remained as the agent to Sompo Japan in Hong Kong in the new millennium. On 1 November 2008, William S.T. Lee Insurance Co. Ltd. was further renamed as Sompo Japan Insurance (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.
With Sompo Japan’s confidence and dedication to the local market, we started to underwrite the insurance business in Hong Kong from 1 January 2010. Today, not only are we committed in delivering high quality risk solutions, we also strive to be a good corporate citizen, which is an integral part of the Group’s philosophy.
