Top insurers honoured at Insurance Asia Awards 2026

The region's leading insurers, recognised for driving innovation and elevating customer experience, took centre stage.

The Insurance Asia Awards 2026 brought the region's leading insurers together for an evening celebrating the best in the industry and honouring outstanding achievements in performance, innovation, and service delivery over the past year.

The awards programme, held on 7 July 2026 in Singapore, champions the insurers driving the industry forward and those that distinguish themselves through their ability to adapt to market shifts and meet emerging risks head-on.

Amongst the winners from this year’s awards programme is Bundit (Kenny) Jiamanukoonkit of Prudential Life Assurance (Thailand) Public Company Limited, who was named CEO of the Year for his purpose‐driven leadership that has accelerated growth, strengthened trust, and transformed the organisation for long‐term impact.

“Together, we drove three years of continuous growth, rising from being number six in the country to become the fourth largest life insurer in Thailand. During these three and a half years, it's not only growing in size but also being number one in terms of our NPS, that we take the best care of our customers,” he said.

“We will continue to innovate the best life and health insurance plans for Thai people and always give our customers the peace of mind that their goals and their family are protected and cared for.”

All entries were assessed by an independent panel of industry experts: Chris Hewison, Partner, Insurance Sector, PwC Hong Kong; Joanna Wong, National Insurance Leader, Deloitte China; Frank Dubois, Head of Financial Services Consulting, Singapore & Head of Insurance, South ASPAC, KPMG Singapore; Steven Goh, Head of Insurance, Singapore, KPMG Singapore; and Vanessa Lou, ASEAN Insurance Leader, EY.

Congratulations to all winners for their outstanding achievements and contributions to the insurance sector in the region!
