Source: Asia Insurance Review | Aug 2015
The Insurance Institute of Hong Kong (IIHK) has agreed merger terms with the Chartered Insurance Institute Hong Kong Limited (CII).
With over 2,000 members post-merger, Hong Kong will be home to the largest group of CII members outside the United Kingdom. The CII, with 117,000 members worldwide, is the world’s largest professional body for the insurance and financial services sector.
As part of the merger, which is expected to be completed in August 2015, insurance and financial services professionals in Hong Kong will be represented by a new Advisory Council that will ensure the delivery of an enhanced membership proposition.
A new Board will also be created to supervise the newly merged organisation. Once the merger is complete, IIHK members will be invited to become members of the CII.
