AIA (01299.HK)  +2.100 (+3.323%)    Short selling $217.91M; Ratio 10.329%   reported a strong 1Q24 VONB of US$1.3 billion, up 31% YoY at CER, and up 27% at AER, with growth driven by the performance of its China business and Hong Kong business. In China and Hong Kong, AIA's profit improved, resulting in an improvement in the VONB margin from 52.3% to 54.2% in 1Q24. ANP rose by 26% YoY.
