Jio Financial Services’ board has approved and signed a joint venture agreement with Allianz for a 50:50 domestic general insurance company. The JV, Allianz Jio Reinsurance Ltd, was incorporated in September 2025 and will begin operations after regulatory clearances. JFS says the venture will combine its digital reach with Allianz’s product expertise, following a July 2025 collaboration announcement and a ₹147.5 crore infusion.
Jio Financial Services says it is expanding its lending book through property and asset-backed corporate loans, keeping its focus on secured segments for now. The company is prioritising balance sheet strength before moving into unsecured credit. Alongside lending growth, its payments bank and payment aggregator businesses are also expanding as it targets a broader full-service financial model.
