The Insurance Authority (IA) has granted new authorization to Wayfoong (Asia) Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the HSBC Group and the first captive insurer formed by a multinational enterprise based in Hong Kong.

Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, Christopher Hui, welcomed the move, and said Hong Kong has strong foundation in investment and trade, making it an ideal location for global enterprises to access insurance, reinsurance and risk management services, as well as establish captive insurers.
