AXA Announces Strategic Re-domiciliation to Hong Kong

AXA Hong Kong and Macau ("AXA") is pleased to announce its plan to re-domicile AXA China Region Insurance Company (Bermuda) Limited (“ACRIB”) from Bermuda to Hong Kong under the new company re-domiciliation regime introduced by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, subject to regulatory approvals. This process will not impact the continuity of ACRIB’s legal entity, organisational structure, or daily operations. Existing rights and obligations of its policyholders, distributors or business partners against ACRIB will remain unaffected, and all existing agreements and commitments will continue in full force and effect. Upon completion of the process, it is proposed that ACRIB will be renamed as AXA China Region Insurance Company (Hong Kong) Limited.

As one of the first insurance companies to undertake re-domiciliation to Hong Kong, this strategic decision demonstrates AXA’s unwavering commitment to its customers in the region and reaffirms its full support for strengthening Hong Kong’s position as a leading international financial centre. By aligning its place of registration with its long-standing base in Hong Kong, AXA aims to enhance operational alignment and continue delivering consistent service excellence and long-term value to its customers.

"We are excited to be among the first to re-domicile to Hong Kong. This move is not merely administrative; it is a significant step forward in deepening our roots in Hong Kong and simplifying our reporting and compliance processes. I firmly believe it will provide strategic advantages that position us for long-term success in one of the world’s most vibrant markets. By leveraging Hong Kong’s robust financial ecosystem and its increasing importance as a regional insurance hub and a global risk management centre, we look forward to capturing the opportunities arising from the region and achieving greater success in the future.”
