Management held a call to address newly proposed insurance distribution regulations announced the previous evening, stating that general insurance revenue could compress by one-third to 40% while life insurance net present value should remain broadly similar. They outlined potential responses including cost rationalisation in marketing and contact-center staffing, exploring an MGA (managing general agent) model, and considering manufacturing or reinsurance capabilities. Management said the regulations are still a draft consultation paper with no clarity yet on implementation timelines or retrospective application.
