Abu Dhabi National Insurance Company PJSC (Arabic: شركة أبوظبي الوطنية التأمين; ADNIC) is a composite insurer headquartered in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.[2] ADNIC is the second largest insurer in the UAE by premium and one of the largest in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).[3]

The company is listed on the Abu Dhabi Stock Exchange and trades under the symbol and Bloomberg ticker ADNIC.[4]

History

ADNIC was established by Emiree Decree on 10 September 1972 and was the first insurer to be licensed in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.[5] The company has expanded over the years and now provides a full suite of insurance and reinsurance products within the UAE, GCC and other countries in Asia and Europe.[6]

Operations

ADNIC has operations across all emirates in the United Arab Emirates consisting of a network of branches, as well as sales and customer service centres.[7] The insurer provides risk coverage in more than 75 countries through its international division operating from Dubai as well as a representative office in London.[7]

ADNIC maintains a strong physical presence across the United Arab Emirates, with strategically located branches in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and Al Ain to serve a diverse customer base efficiently.[6] In addition to its local footprint, ADNIC operates an international representative office in London, further strengthening its global reach and enabling the company to serve international clients and partners across Europe and beyond.[6]

The largest shareholder in ADNIC is Mamoura Diversified Global Holding Company PJSC (24.77%), which is the sovereign wealth fund of the emirate of Abu Dhabi.[10]

In 2024, ADNIC acquired Allianz Saudi Fransi Cooperative Insurance Company, subsequently rebranded as Mutakamela Insurance Company.[2] This acquisition expanded ADNIC’s market presence significantly in Saudi Arabia, further solidifying its position within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.[2]
