Shin Kong Life Insurance and Taishin Life Insurance, both subsidiaries of TS Financial Holdings Co., (TS Holdings), officially completed their merger on 1 January 2026.
With Taishin Life Insurance as the surviving entity, the merged company has been renamed Shin Kong Life Insurance, retaining the Shin Kong Life brand that has been operating in Taiwan for more than 60 years.
The board of directors has elected Mr Paul Wei as Chairman and Mr Hung Shih-chi as Vice Chairman and appointed Mr Huang Min-yi as President.
With total assets exceeding NT$4tn ($128bn), the enlarged Shin Kong Life plans to integrate its product portfolios and capitalise on complementary distribution channels.

The combined entity brings together Shin Kong Life’s strengths in traditional life, health, accident, and investment-linked insurance and Taishin Life’s expertise in investment-linked, interest-sensitive, and participating products.
