This book serves as a quick guide to the websites of some selected 12 regulators in the region*. It provides an idea of how comprehensive the websites are.
This book also compares the English-language and local-language websites of regulators in countries or territories where the national language is other than English. We hope that this will be of service to readers who will then have a better understanding of the workings of the regulators concerned.
In addition, this review shows some best practices in the design of websites. Several websites contain features that can be emulated by other regulators and insurance companies.
* The websites of regulators covered in this review are those of:
Australia; Brunei; China; Hong Kong; India; Indonesia; Japan; Korea; Malaysia; Singapore; Taiwan; and Thailand ( * The Philippines has been omitted from this exercise because its regulator, the Insurance Commissioner, is carrying out a major revamp of its website as this book goes to print).
