SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Huize Holding Limited, (“Huize”, the “Company” or “we”) (NASDAQ: HUIZ), a leading insurance technology platform connecting consumers, insurance carriers and distribution partners digitally through data-driven and AI-powered solutions in Asia, today announced that it has partnered with New China Life Insurance Company Limited (“NCI”) to launch “Bliss No.2”, a customized lifetime annuity product.

Mr. Cunjun Ma, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Huize, commented, “We are pleased to launch ‘Bliss No.2’ at a time when the Chinese market is undergoing a significant shift in retirement planning, driven by national policies that prioritize stability and risk management. As China’s retirement age reforms continue to unfold, we are poised to capitalize on the growing demand for secure, long-term financial products by leveraging our partnership with NCI to deliver a comprehensive solution that brings together our shared expertise in customized insurance offerings, digital distribution capabilities, and trusted brands.
