AIA savors the sweet spot of insurance in Asia

AIA Group Ltd, the world's second-largest life insurer by market value, will continue to focus on protection policies and the quality of its business in China to ensure sustainable growth, according to top management.

"We've been very specific and very clear about our China strategy: we focus on quality, not quantity; we focus on productivity and protection policies," said Mark Tucker, CEO and president of AIA Group.

The clear focus, Tucker said, is also the secret of AIA's success in the world's second-largest insurance market.
