Initially, Prudential’s Macau branch will offer life and health insurance offerings, such as multi-currency options to cater to customer needs across savings, healthcare and protection.

According to Prudential strategic business group managing director Lilian Ng, the new Macau outpost completes the insurer’s footprint in China’s Greater Bay Area (GBA).

Ng added: “While we have seen rapid economic development in Macau, insurance penetration remains low. With the city’s fast-ageing population, there is strong demand from its residents for solutions that can help them access private healthcare facilities in Macau and elsewhere in the GBA. 

“The Macau branch will play a pivotal role in our strategy to make healthcare and financial security more accessible to people in the GBA, as we leverage our 50-year experience of providing insurance to customers in Hong Kong.”
