National Financial Supervisory Administration: The transition period for the insurance company's solvency regulatory rules has been extended until the end of next year.
The National Financial Supervision and Administration Bureau announced that it has decided to extend the transitional period for the solvency regulatory rules (II) for insurance companies, originally set to end this year, until the end of next year.

The Financial Supervision Bureau will determine the transitional period policy for each company by the end of February next year.
