China Galaxy Securities says 2026 presents a dual opportunity for insurers from
asset-side improvement and liability-side transformation. On the asset side,
more diversified allocations and a healthier equity market should ease
investment‑income pressure. On the liability side, participating (dividend) life
products are becoming the core of new premium growth; stabilising assumed
interest rates should reduce reliance on stop‑sale speculation, and a low‑rate
era deposit‑migration effect should continue to unlock liability-side potential.
The firm is constructive on scope for sector valuation recovery.
