Monetary Authority of Macao’s Public Notice for Prevention of Illegal Sales of Insurance

On 19 July 2022, the Monetary Authority of Macao (“AMCM”) appealed to the public to beware of illegal sales of life insurance, and be vigilant and refuse to receive product information and insurance advice provided by unlicensed companies, online platforms and individuals. The entire sales process of life insurance products must be carried out within Macau, and all insurance documents must also be signed in Macau. For the details about AMCM’s public notice, please see the AMCM website (only available in Chinese or Portuguese): https://www.amcm.gov.mo/zh/news-and-announcements/press-releases/gap/20220719

Customers should receive insurance products and services of AXA Macau through us or our licensed insurance intermediaries to avoid financial losses, or be involved in illegal financial activities such as cross-border funds exchange or transfer, or even criminal offences such as money laundering.  Customers should never accept any insurance services or purchase any AXA Macau’s insurance products from any parties or any “referrers” purportedly represented for AXA Macau outside Macau.
