HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 June 2025 – AIA Hong Kong announced the launch of Wealth Generation (“the Plan”), a bespoke life insurance plan designed exclusively for high-net-worth (HNW) individuals. This Plan enables customers to capitalise on wealth creation opportunities in today’s dynamic market while fostering long-term prosperity through strategic legacy planning.

With projected breakeven year as short as four years#, this comprehensive solution addresses the dual priorities of HNW customers: wealth accumulation and legacy management.

Ms Alice Liang, Chief Proposition & Healthcare Officer of AIA Hong Kong & Macau, said: “As a global hub for asset and wealth management, Hong Kong has long been a magnet for high-net-worth individuals and families from around the world. Their needs for life insurance products are constantly evolving. They not only seek to navigate complex investment landscape but also place great emphasis on managing their wealth with control, precision, flexibility, and resilience, ensuring seamless wealth transfer.”

She added: “AIA remains unwavering in our customer-centric approach, consistently delivering innovative products and thoughtful services that go beyond expectations and delight our customers.

Key features and value-added services of the Wealth Generation:

Empowering Wealth Growth

Short projected total breakeven year and competitive projected total IRR

  • Projected total breakeven year as short as four years#, with a 10-year projected total IRR of up to 5.05%#, helping customers seize opportunities for steady wealth growth.
  • Guaranteed cash value and non-guaranteed Terminal Dividend1, along with the Terminal Dividend Lock-in Option2, enabling customers to secure potential returns while pursuing long-term financial growth.

Rare-in-market* Flexi Withdrawal Option3

  • Policyholders can set up flexible withdrawal instructions starting from the end of the 5th policy year, where they may automatically and regularly withdraw policy values during their specified period for payment to the designated payment recipient, catering to their evolving needs at different life stages.

Seamless Legacy Planning

Legacy Planning Options and Value-added Services

  • Market-first^ Future Guard Option: Through the value-added service, Transitional Owner Arrangement4, policyholder can designate a family member as the contingent owner of the policy and another aged 18 or above family member as the transitional owner of the policy. The transitional owner will oversee the policy with limited administrative rights until the designated contingent owner takes over ownership of the policy upon reaching the date or age as specified by the policyholder.
  • The Future Guard Option also allows the transitional owner to split the policy into two separate policies and to designate another family member as the new contingent owner and insured of the split policy. Ownership of the split policy is transferred when the new contingent owner reaches the specified date or age, ensuring seamless and harmonious wealth succession across generations.

Safeguarding Loved Ones

  • Market-first^ Beneficiary Flexi Option: Under specified conditions5, beneficiaries are empowered to flexibly choose their settlement options to receive their share of the unpaid death benefit and accidental death benefit. This ensures a personalised and holistic approach to legacy planning.
  • Market-first^ Health Impairment Option6: In the event that the policyholder suffers from a mental issue or becomes unconscious for a certain period due to a specified illness, the designated recipient7 can receive benefit payment or policy ownership according to the policyholder’s instructions. This feature safeguards the financial well-being of loved ones.

Recognising the exacting standards of HNW customers for health and wealth solutions, AIA established AIA Club Alta in 2023 to deliver curated privileges8 across three pillars: health and wellness, wealth management and exquisite lifestyle experiences. These exclusive offerings have empowered customers to strike an optimal balance between health and wealth, enabling them to enjoy a more prosperous and fulfilling life. AIA Club Alta also extends its bespoke wealth management privileges9 to include advisory services on tax planning, trusts, legal and family office consultations. When combined with Wealth Generation, these services provide customers with an effective solution, ensuring the mastery of wealth amplification, seamless wealth succession and peace of mind for generations to come.

  • Beneficiary Flexi Option: With the Beneficiary Flexi Option, the policy owner allows the beneficiary to choose to receive the death benefit payment in accordance with the beneficiary’s selected settlement option when the beneficiary has attained the designated age chosen by the policy owner or when the beneficiary is diagnosed with a specified illness under Beneficiary Flexi Option. This feature is first-in-market when compared with the savings insurance products provided by Hong Kong major insurance companies, pioneered by AIA with the FlexiAchiever Savings Plan on 8 January 2025.
  • Health Impairment Option: This option allows the policy owner to designate up to 2 different designated recipients and elect for both benefit payment and transfer of ownership at the same time. This feature is first-in-market when compared with the savings insurance products provided by Hong Kong major insurance companies as of 7 May 2025.
* Compared with the savings insurance products provided by Hong Kong major insurance companies as of 7 May 2025.
# “Projected total breakeven year” is the policy year at the end of which the projected total surrender value is greater than or equal to the single premium paid for the first time. The projected Total IRR is neither indicative of future performance nor guaranteed. The projected total IRR based on the assumption that no cash withdrawals or policy loans are taken throughout the term of the policy, none of Terminal Dividend Lock-in Option, Flexi Withdrawal Option, Policy Split Option and Health Impairment Incapacity Option is exercised and that all premiums are paid in full when due.
  1. The non-guaranteed Terminal Dividend may be declared to the policy at least once per policy year starting from the end of the 3rd policy year. However, AIA Hong Kong may also at its sole discretion declare the Terminal Dividend more frequently than once per policy year, such as on a monthly basis.
  2. This option is available once per policy year starting from the end of the 15th policy year, and application for such transfer must be made within 30 days after the end of a policy year.
  3. Subject to relevant conditions and withdrawal risks.
  4. Transitional Owner Arrangement is only available to designated policies which meet our eligibility requirements. Transitional Owner Arrangement is a value-added service and not a product feature, therefore it does not form part of the policy contract of Wealth Generation. Application is subject to our approval at our discretion. We reserve the right to withdraw the Transitional Owner Arrangement or change its terms and conditions or any related requirements at any time at our sole and absolute discretion. Future Guard Option is one of the service features under the Transitional Owner Arrangement. For details of Transitional Owner Arrangement and Future Guard Option (including but not limited to eligibility, risk and limitation), please refer to the value-added service leaflet of Transitional Owner Arrangement.
  5. If the policyholder has chosen the Death Benefit Settlement Option, he/she may also choose the Beneficiary Flexi Option. Upon the beneficiary attaining the designated age chosen by the policyholder or being diagnosed with a specified illness including cancer, stroke, heart attack, terminal illness and kidney failure, such beneficiary can receive his/her share of the unpaid death benefit and accidental death benefit (if any) according to his/her selected settlement option.
  6. Starting from the end of the 3rd policy year, if the policyholder is also the insured, he/she may elect for benefit payment and/or ownership transfer to designated recipient(s) under the Health Impairment Option. Subject to relevant conditions and withdrawal risk.
  7. The policyholder may designate up to 2 family members aged 18 or above as designated recipients and the applicable designated percentage of policy value for benefit payment and/or ownership transfer. If the policyholder suffers from a mental issue or becomes unconscious for a certain period due to a specified illness including Apallic Syndrome and Coma, the designated recipient may in accordance with the instructions receive a lump sum benefit payment and/or become the new policy owner of the policy.
  8. The membership and privileges of AIA Club Alta are subject to terms and conditions. For details, please refer to AIA Club Alta website (aia.com.hk/en/aia-alta).
  9. The wealth management privileges of AIA Club Alta are provided by third-party service providers and partners. AIA Hong Kong and its intermediaries do not provide any opinion or advice to customers regarding the relevant services.

SIM60 WILL Award: Elevating Employability Through Work-Integrated Learning

Published

on

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 19 December 2025 – In today’s competitive job market, academic excellence alone is no longer sufficient for career success. Employers increasingly value graduates who demonstrate resilience, adaptability, and real-world experience. To address this shift, SIM has introduced the SIM60 Work-Integrated Learning (WILL) Award, a prestigious accolade that celebrates students who excel in internships and embody qualities essential for thriving in the workplace.

Work-Integrated Learning Matters

Work-Integrated Learning bridges the gap between classroom theory and practical application. By immersing students in authentic work environments, internships cultivate essential skills beyond technical knowledge, including cognitive abilities such as problem-solving, affective traits like emotional intelligence, and psychomotor skills that enhance hands-on performance. Graduates who master these dimensions stand out as versatile professionals ready to contribute from day one, shaping leaders of the future who can drive innovation and growth.

The SIM60 WILL Award: Setting Graduates Apart

The SIM60 WILL Award is more than a recognition, it is a testament to resilience and excellence. Students who complete internships successfully and demonstrate perseverance in challenging situations are honoured for their commitment to growth. This award signals to employers that recipients are not only academically competent but also workplace-ready, equipped with the adaptability and grit that modern industries demand. It reinforces SIM’s mission to foster sustainable employment by preparing graduates for long-term career success.

Success Stories That Inspire

Recipients of the SIM60 WILL Award come from varied academic and personal backgrounds, yet many share a common pathway: leveraging work-integrated learning experiences to strengthen their career readiness. Several award recipients have used internships to apply classroom knowledge to real business environments, developing data dashboards, automating processes, supporting cybersecurity initiatives, and contributing to enterprise-level digital projects.

For some, these internships have served as stepping stones to contract or full-time roles in areas such as business analysis, project management and data operations. Others have progressed to subsequent placements in high growth sectors, where exposure to real world challenges has helped refine their technical skills and broaden their understanding of industry expectations.

These experiences reflect SIM’s commitment in shaping leaders of the future and fostering Sustainable Employment through Work-Integrated Learning, demonstrating how structured internships, supported by SIM’s guidance and reinforced through the WILL Award, equip learners with practical competencies and professional confidence to navigate evolving career landscapes.

Impact on Employability

Internship experience is a proven differentiator in hiring decisions. According to global employability studies, candidates with practical exposure are significantly more likely to secure roles and advance in their careers. The SIM60 WILL Award amplifies this advantage by validating the quality of a student’s internship performance. For employers, it serves as a trusted benchmark of talent. For graduates, it opens doors to opportunities that might otherwise remain out of reach, enhancing employability in a rapidly evolving economy.

Key Takeaways

The SIM60 WILL Award reflects SIM’s ongoing efforts to integrate work experience into education, supporting students in building practical skills that complement academic learning. By recognizing internship excellence, the award highlights the importance of resilience and adaptability in preparing graduates for the evolving job market.
