Association of Malaysian Loss Adjusters (1981)
Persatuan Penyelaras Kerugian Malaysia (1981)
ABOUT US
HISTORY OF AMLA
While there is no record to confirm when the loss adjusting profession started in our country, it is believed that the first insurance surveyor firm was established in the 1930s. The few firms existing at that time were essentially involved in marine claims. Other classes of insurance claims were however dealt with by the insurance companies’ claims offices.
Loss adjusting firms dealing with fire, motor and general losses in Malaysia took root in the 1950s.
The loss adjusting profession came under the purview of the authority in the 60s and was further regulated when all adjusting firms had to be corporatized in the early 1980s.
The formation of AMLA was mooted during this period and the association was registered as a society under the Society Act 1966 in 1981.
