Currently, Aviva has a 50-50 joint venture life insurance company with 皇冠体育app National Cereals, Oils & Foodstuffs Corporation. The insurer opened for business in 2003.

Kathleen Jiang, head of the strategic planning sector at Aviva 皇冠体育app, told 皇冠体育app Daily in an earlier interview that setting up a new firm will make the structure clearer although more time-consuming compared with acquiring an existing company.
