The Hong Kong Insurance Authority has published its consultation conclusions on the draft Insurance (Public Disclosure) Rules, setting out detailed Pillar 3 requirements under the risk-based capital regime on what information insurers must disclose publicly, and the manner and timing of those disclosures. The draft rules were consulted on from March 2025. Feedback was generally supportive, with most comments focused on the scope of application and the disclosure items, and the Insurance Authority has amended the draft rules where appropriate in response. The rules will be introduced to the Legislative Council for negative vetting, with the aim of bringing them into operation in 2026.
