Chubb Life Hong Kong Launches Market-First Dementia Insurance Plan, Side by Side
Pioneering Holistic Support for Dementia Patients and Caregivers in Hong Kong
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 November 2025 – Chubb Life Hong Kong today announced the launch of the Side by Side Dementia Insurance Plan (Side by Side), Hong Kong’s first standalone policy dedicated to supporting individuals with dementia and their caregivers. Side by Side offers a simple application process, benefits payable upon initial diagnosis of both moderate dementia and severe dementia, and holistic end-to-end support, building on Chubb Life Hong Kong’s deep understanding of and commitment to address the evolving needs of the silver aged community.
Hong Kong faces a significant demographic shift, with one in three residents expected to be aged 65 or above by 20461, and dementia cases projected to exceed 390,000 by 20452. The burden on families is substantial, with an alarming 42% of family caregivers reporting depression3.
Designed in response to critical care challenges faced by dementia patients and their families, Side by Side provides holistic support throughout the long-term dementia journey, offering both financial and emotional lifelines. Key features include:
- Early detection and diagnosis: Complimentary cognitive assessments4 for the Insured and designated family members, prioritizing early prevention.
- Financial support: Benefits payable upon initial diagnosis of both moderate dementia and severe dementia. Continuing Care Benefit provides long-term monthly payouts after the severe dementia benefit is paid.
- Flexible settlement options5: Choice of lump sum or monthly installment plan for severe dementia benefits.
- Premium waiver: All future premiums waived after a severe dementia diagnosis.
- Management continuity: Appointment of a designated successor owner6 to minimize complicated procedures if the original owner becomes mentally incapacitated.
- Simple application: Answering just one health question and no medical underwriting required.
Recognizing the burden on caregivers, Side by Side includes a Caregiver Support Benefit, reimbursing professional counselling expenses after the insured is diagnosed with severe dementia. In addition, the Step by Step Care value-added service4, available in Hong Kong, Macau, and designated Greater Bay Area cities, grants families access to personal case management, early cognitive assessment, daily living support, therapy services, and ongoing training programs – all designed to provide accessible and personalized support.
Belinda Au, President of Chubb Life Hong Kong and Head of North Asia, said, “Introducing Hong Kong’s first dedicated dementia insurance plan, Side by Side, is more than a product innovation – it is a reflection of our commitment to building a stronger, more connected community. What sets Side by Side apart is its holistic approach with a special focus on supporting caregivers, because we understand that dementia touches not only individuals, but everyone around them. Side by Side is designed to provide practical solutions and emotional support at every stage of the journey.”
Side by Side is the latest addition to Chubb Life Hong Kong’s signature Silver Life product series, which is specifically tailored for silver age customers. The series offers comprehensive solutions, including life protection, hospital and surgical cash coverage, cancer protection coverage, and now, dedicated dementia coverage.

As a key gateway connecting China with global markets, Hong Kong serves as an important benchmark for the premium automotive industry and a strategic platform for luxury brands expanding internationally. Launching the global strategy for the 9-Series in Hong Kong marks a significant new chapter in ZEEKR’s growth across the global premium new energy vehicle market.
800,000 Deliveries Milestone Underscores ZEEKR’s Global Growth Momentum
Strong market performance continues to support ZEEKR’s expansion in the global premium new energy vehicle segment. As of June 16, 2026, ZEEKR’s cumulative global deliveries officially exceeded 800,000 vehicles, marking a major milestone for the brand.
In Hong Kong, ZEEKR has maintained strong momentum. From January to May 2026, ZEEKR captured a 40.7% market share of Hong Kong’s luxury vehicle segment, ranking first among all luxury automotive brands. The ZEEKR 009 ranked as Hong Kong’s best-selling luxury MPV, while the ZEEKR 7X became the city’s best-selling luxury SUV.

In Malaysia, ZEEKR ranked No.1 among luxury pure-electric brands during the same period, with the ZEEKR 7X leading the luxury electric SUV category and the ZEEKR 009 remaining the top-selling luxury electric MPV.

Dual Flagship 9-Series Models Showcase ZEEKR’s Technology-Luxury Vision
At this year’s expo, ZEEKR is showcasing five models spanning family mobility, executive transportation and flagship luxury, highlighting the breadth of its premium product portfolio.
The ZEEKR 9X, ZEEKR’s new global flagship of ultra-luxury SUV, is built on the SEA-S architecture and features a 900V high-performance silicon carbide electric drive system delivering more than 1,030 kW of maximum power. Four integrated safety structures combined with extensive use of 2,000 MPa ultra-high-strength steel contribute to a torsional rigidity rating of 41,600 N·m/deg, setting a new benchmark for safety in the hybrid SUV segment. The ZEEKR 9X recently opened pre-sales in the Middle East, where it has received strong market interest. The model is scheduled to expand into key markets across Latin America, Central Asia and Europe.
The ZEEKR 009 Grand, the brand’s global ultra-luxury four-seater flagship MPV, features a 720-degree comprehensive safety architecture and the world’s first integrated die-cast C-ring cabin structure, delivering segment-leading rear-seat protection. The second row is equipped with two ultra-soft aniline leather executive seats featuring 20 massage points and an industry-leading seven-zone graphene heating system, creating an exceptional luxury experience for rear passengers. The right-hand-drive version of the ZEEKR 009 Grand is scheduled to launch in Hong Kong in the fourth quarter of 2026.
The ZEEKR 8X, a super hybrid high-performance flagship SUV, also makes its Hong Kong debut. Built on the SEA-S Super Hybrid Architecture, the ZEEKR 8X delivers a flagship experience across four key dimensions: performance, intelligence, safety and comfort.

A Decade of Sharing the Flavors of China: ‘Chinese Restaurant’ Stays True to Its Mission Through Food and Culture
Over the past nine years, Chinese Restaurant has traveled across multiple countries and regions, including Thailand, France, Italy, and Hungary. Looking back on its journey of cultural exchange, the program launched a dedicated Chinese food truck in France, allowing local residents and visitors to conveniently experience authentic Chinese flavors. In Hungary, food served as a unique language that fostered deeper intercultural understanding. During the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Italy, the program actively responded to the Belt and Road Initiative, using cultural interaction and culinary exchange to strengthen friendship between the two nations.
Now, standing at the threshold of its second decade, Chinese Restaurant: Nanyang Memories Season returns to Thailand, drawing upon the longstanding cultural, tourism, and people-to-people ties between China and Thailand. Through food and storytelling, the program once again brings Chinese culture to life on Southeast Asian soil.
The new season introduces an innovative business model inspired by traditional Chinese agricultural wisdom, creating a distinctive experience that combines pastoral ecology with the aesthetics of contemporary Chinese dining. New service concepts, including the “Chef’s Table” and “Chef at Home,” offer guests diverse culinary experiences while naturally integrating Chinese cuisine into everyday local life.
For ten years, Chinese Restaurant has remained committed to its original vision: telling authentic and heartfelt Chinese stories while showcasing the unique appeal of Chinese cuisine to global audiences. Through food, the program has helped narrow cultural distances, deepen international understanding, and highlight the confidence, vitality, and inclusiveness of Chinese culture.
The premiere episode of Chinese Restaurant: Nanyang Memories Season coincides with the Dragon Boat Festival, as the seven partners begin a brand-new entrepreneurial adventure in Chiang Mai, Thailand. From unexpected operational challenges and cultural differences to the dynamic interactions among team members with diverse personalities, the journey promises a wealth of memorable moments and compelling stories for viewers.
Over the years, the Chinese Restaurant franchise has consistently used authentic Chinese cuisine as a bridge connecting people across cultures. Every dish reflects the traditions and warmth of Chinese daily life, while every shared meal conveys the spirit and values of Eastern culture. Set against real-world international backdrops, the program vividly presents the depth and richness of Chinese civilization.
Today, Chinese Restaurant is far more than a culinary reality show. It has become a platform for cultural dialogue, mutual understanding, and friendship between China and the world. Through the universal language of food, the program continues to bring people closer together, allowing Chinese flavors and Chinese stories to resonate across borders and leave a lasting impression on audiences worldwide.
