Ping An’s Noninsurance Segment Faces Mounting Challenges From Ongoing Macro Slowdown

In China's highly competitive insurance market, Ping An differentiates itself with its ability to use proprietary technology to strengthen the customer experience and enhance cross-sales for its major ecosystems: integrated finance, auto, healthcare, and eldercare. We believe its competitive advantage results in a better outlook than peers in terms of underwriting profitability and growth.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

We believe the regulatory cut to bancassurance commission rate will benefit large insurers such as Ping An, with about 75% of bancassurance sales being generated from its banking subsidiary and a strong product pipeline.

Bears

Frequent top management turnover posts more temporary headwinds to its ongoing business restructuring.
