MetLife Nepal opens agency offices in Mahottari, Morang, Baglung
KATHMANDU: MetLife Nepal today said it has opened three new agency offices in Bardibas (Mahottari), Pathari (Morang) and Baglung as part of an effort to strengthen access to financial protection in regional hubs and surrounding communities.
The company said the new offices are intended to bring trusted insurance guidance closer to people’s daily lives, reducing the need for families and small businesses to travel to distant cities for life insurance services. With a local MetLife presence, customers can receive personalised advice, timely service and ongoing support within their own communities.
MetLife said the expansion is expected to have an impact beyond insurance access by creating local employment opportunities and supporting more individuals to build careers as insurance professionals. Increased awareness and adoption of insurance solutions, the company added, will help families prepare for uncertainties, potential income disruptions and long‑term goals such as education and retirement.
Speaking on the expansion, Nirmal Kajee Shrestha, General Manager of MetLife Nepal, said, “Opening agency offices in Bardibas, Pathari, and Baglung is about strengthening financial resilience at the community level. When protection is accessible locally, families are better equipped to make informed decisions, manage risks, and plan for the future with confidence.”
MetLife said the move supports inclusive growth as Nepal’s economy continues to diversify, helping ensure that more people — regardless of where they live — can benefit from long‑term financial security.
MetLife, Inc is a global financial services company providing insurance, annuities, employee benefits and asset management. MetLife has operated in Nepal since 2001 and offers life insurance, accident and health insurance and employee benefits through its local branch.
