The Insurance Australia Group Limited (IAG) announced that its 49 percent-owned Malaysian associate, AmG Insurance Berhad, has received regulatory approval for a possible acquisition of Kurnia Insurans (Malaysia) Berhad, the principal general insurance business of Kurnia Asia Berhad.
IAG first announced that a possible deal for Kurnia was in the works last December.
