Compared with traditional commercial bank customers, consumer finance customers and auto finance customers have a higher credit risk: they are more vulnerable, and more likely to default and obtain bad personal credit records. At the same time, these customers might be unfamiliar or do not proactively seek the security net that insurance provides. Meanwhile, insurance groups and holding companies strive to bring synergies to their markets by cross-selling between life insurance, health insurance and P&C companies, which requires them to obtain the qualification of cross-selling each other’s products in China. Many foreign-owned insurance companies do not have this cross-selling qualification, and those that do have obtained it in the past only for selected business lines. Meanwhile, draft regulation for commercial banks to cross-sell insurance has been released. In addition, consumer finance companies and auto finance companies seek to act as insurance agents in the same way that banks do. To successfully compete in the market, insurance companies, consumer finance companies and auto finance companies must be enabled to apply for this qualification.
