An inside look at insurance
On September 19, Insurance Forum members met to discuss industry issues with USTR’s new Senior Director of China Affairs Ann Main, as well as Patrick Chow and Erica Thomas of the U.S. Embassy.
Main is responsible for insurance at USTR, after the departure of Eric Altbach. The members briefed her on key industry issues such as regulatory structure, internal branching, transparency, enterprise annuity trustee licenses and the position of China Post. Main provided an update on U.S. government’s concerns and plans for future negotiations with the Chinese government.
Lester Ross and Malone Ma co-chair the Insurance Forum. The insurance chapter of the AmCham 2007 White Paper is available here.
