SCUA Far East Co. Ltd. was originated from the Marine Claims Department of Aall & Co., which was founded in Japan by Mr. Aall Jacob Benjaminsen in 1904 and thereafter taken over by the Monsen family in 1954.
Scandinavian Underwriters A/S, Oslo, Norway set up a joint venture company – Aall Scandinavian Underwriters Far East Agency Co., Ltd. on the 1st January, 1987 (50% Aall – 50% Scandinavian Underwriters). By the end of 1989, the agreement with Aall & Co. expired, and the Norwegian Underwriters became sole owners. Scandinavian Underwriters Far East Agency Co., Ltd. was set up in 1991 as a part of SCUA world-wide organization together with SCUA Rotterdam (including subsidiaries in Hamburg, Antwerp, Lisbon and Dubai) and SMCO New York.
Scandinavian Underwriters withdrew from owning Scandinavian Underwriters Far East Agency Co., Ltd. in 2003, and at the same time, the present company – SCUA Far East Co. Ltd. was established.
