About Us:
While attempting to purchase motor insurance in KSA in 2016, we found that the process was time-consuming and challenging. Not being able to evaluate options or validate prices made us realize that there was a gap in the market that needed to be filled. Driven by the desire to simplify and disrupt this traditional experience, we developed the concept of Tameeni, the first online insurance aggregator in KSA. While building Tameeni, we realized the insurance industry's infrastructure was not yet prepared for digital automation, which led us to found Rasan, a financial technology company dedicated to simplifying insurance and banking processes.
The launch of Tameeni in 2017 changed the insurance buying process forever. Building on this success, we introduced Awalmazad, an online auction platform that provides a transparent process for insurance companies and banks to sell salvage and repossessed vehicles. This strategic move enabled us to advance our position in the insurance industry's value chain, address industry challenges, enhance our capabilities, deepen our relationships with insurance companies and banks, and gain an exceptional competitive advantage.
We then launched Tameeni Health for SMEs, providing a seamless experience for SMEs to buy insurance for employees and their dependents. In addition, we introduced Treza, a key product that helps lessors such as banks and other financial providers with their auto lease insurance. Nine out of 10 leasing cars on the street are insured through Treza.
