Being an important element of the diversified financial businesses, the insurance industry in Hong Kong is experiencing a rapid growth as a regional insurance hub. This stems from insurance companies’ continuous efforts in brand building and winning customers’ confidence. As the insurance sector in Hong Kong is getting more and more relevant to our lives and well-being, it is imperative for insurance companies to be vigilant in upholding a high integrity standard and to take a proactive stance against corruption in order to secure customers’ confidence, and sustain the stable and healthy development of the industry.
