MDRT Honors HSBC Life as 2025’s Top Life Insurance Company

MDRT (Million Dollar Round Table) celebrated the achievements of the insurance industry by sponsoring the “Life Insurance Company of the Year” award, presented to HSBC Life (International) Limited during the 29th Asia Insurance Industry Awards (AIIA) on November 3, 2025. The ceremony took place at the prestigious Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre in Singapore.

For over ten years, MDRT has collaborated with the Asia Insurance Review to promote excellence in the financial services profession. The sponsorship of the AIIA highlights MDRT’s commitment to fostering growth among companies and financial advisors across the Asia-Pacific region while recognizing their significant contributions to the industry.

According to MDRT’s Chief Executive Officer, Stephen P. Stahr, the organization is dedicated to equipping financial professionals with essential tools and motivation. “Our sponsorship of the 2025 AIIA ‘Life Insurance Company of the Year’ Award celebrates organizations that set the benchmark for success in life insurance distribution by upholding professionalism and driving meaningful contributions to clients, advisors, and the industry as a whole,” he stated during the event.

MDRT’s membership has evolved from a foundation in life insurance to encompass more sophisticated financial planning. By adopting various distribution channels such as agency, financial advisory, and bancassurance, MDRT has enhanced its relevance in global markets, particularly in Asia.

The organization remains committed to fostering further growth in the region through initiatives such as the AIIA sponsorship. MDRT, founded in 1927, has become a member-driven network comprising leading insurance and financial services professionals from more than 80 nations and territories, representing nearly 700 companies. Notably, seven Asia-Pacific markets rank among the top ten in total MDRT membership.

In 2023, MDRT established its Asia-Pacific headquarters in Singapore to better serve its members and partners in the region. This office collaborates with MDRT’s U.S. headquarters and satellite offices in China and India to enhance member resources, benefits, and support local leaders through various events.

MDRT congratulates HSBC Life (International) Limited on this achievement and encourages other companies to apply for the “Life Insurance Company of the Year Award,” which will be sponsored again in 2026.

As MDRT continues to uphold the highest standards of ethics, knowledge, and client service, it remains a recognized benchmark of excellence in the life insurance and financial services industry. For more information about membership and initiatives, visit www.mdrt.org.
