"China Life Revitalization" progressing steadily: Investor relations improvements highly recognized by the capital market

China Life was listed in New York and Hong Kong in 2003 and returned to the Chinese A-share market in 2007. With over a decade's worth of experience being listed in three markets, China Life has been able to forge a professional, efficient and compliant IR team.

At present, the average age of the Company's IR team is 35 years old, with experience in investor relations ranging from 3-15 years. The team members come from diverse backgrounds, but all possess a sound understanding of the capital markets as well as profound knowledge of the insurance industry, while maintaining an international perspective.

With the launch of a series of reforms in 2019, came a new top priority for the Company's IR team: helping the capital market truly understand and recognize the positive changes in China Life.

Since new management has taken the helm, the IR team hosted a Company Open Day (the first in four years), providing access to the Company's senior management and setting a record for number of attendees, while garnering an immense amount of attention from the capital market and the media. At the same time, the frequency of meetings with investors has been greatly increased, offering investors in-depth communication opportunities with Company management or relevant personnel, while the engagement and accessibility of the Company has been continuously enhanced.
