Pioneering Efforts to Accelerate the Development of the Shanghai International Reinsurance Registration and Trading Center
As the global reinsurance capacity is undergoing a “reconfiguration” period, the Shanghai International Reinsurance Registration and Trading Center is a key project in Shanghai’s efforts to build an international first-class reinsurance center, representing a concrete practice of advancing the institutional opening-up of the reinsurance industry.
Leveraging resources provided by the Shanghai International Reinsurance Registration and Trading Center, AXA Tianping Reinsurance Center successfully completed the first cross-border capital settlement of international reinsurance business in August this year. This achievement significantly enhanced the efficiency of the clearing and settlement processes, leading to a substantial improvement in operational efficiency.
It is reported that this first in-depth reinsurance transaction was conducted under the “Cross-border Vehicle Recognition” policy, in collaboration between AXA Hong Kong and AXA Tianping. It not only contributed to the integrated development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area but also marked another major achievement in cross-border financial services in Lingang New Area.
Meanwhile, the settlement of this first transaction will also help accelerate the development of the Shanghai International Reinsurance Center. On August 2, the National Financial Regulatory Administration Commission and the People’s Government of Shanghai jointly issued the “Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of the Shanghai International Reinsurance Center,” emphasizing the development of the incremental reinsurance market, strengthening reinsurance supply capacity, improving the risk management system and mechanism, and supporting banks in providing cross-border capital settlement convenience for real and compliant reinsurance business through the Shanghai Insurance Exchange platform. This aims to build Shanghai into an internationally competitive reinsurance center.
AXA Tianping will continue to follow the guidance of national policies and regulatory agencies in “five major articles,” share new development opportunities, actively contribute to the “two-way opening” and transformation and upgrading of the Chinese reinsurance market, enhance the level of the Shanghai International Financial Center, and contribute to the construction of a financial power.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and France, as well as the 25th anniversary of AXA’s presence in China. We firmly believe in the development prospects of China and are committed to deepening our presence in the local market. We strive to meet the aspirations of the people for a better life and serve the development of the real economy, including small and medium-sized enterprises.
As one of the largest and most diversified foreign-funded property insurance companies in China, AXA Tianping Reinsurance Center looks forward to contributing to the innovative upgrade of the reinsurance industry on this young, innovative, efficient, and international platform of Lingang New Area. We will actively contribute to cost reduction and efficiency improvement in the insurance industry, as well as the pilot testing of reforms in Lingang New Area and the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone.
