CIMB is once again assembling the insurance ecosystem - insurers, policymakers, academics, and industry experts at InsureXpo® 2026, a unique platform for knowledge-sharing and community engagement.
The event, the third edition of its kind, will take place on May 23 at Suntec Convention Centre, Halls 405 and 406.

"By uniting diverse voices under one roof, we aim to help Singapore residents gain clarity and confidence on their financial independence journey,” adds Tsai.
Helen Shen, Singlife's group head of products emphasises the need to spot potential insurance gaps early.
"Many assume they are protected until a crisis proves otherwise and by then, it is usually too late to take action."
"We hope to help attendees discover possible blind spots and ensure that their insurance coverage evolves with their life stages and priorities, so that protection truly works when it matters most," adds Shen.
At the event, Raymond Tan, CIMB Singapore's head of wealth management and deposits, and Professor Sharon Ng, deputy dean of the Nanyang Business School, will present the latest survey results on Singapore residents’ perceptions and behaviours towards financial planning.
Shen of Singlife will flag blind spots in insurance coverage, by helping attendees uncover overlooked exclusions, overlapping plans, and missed essentials.
Chan Wai Kit, executive director of the Life Insurance Association, will help attendees strike the right balance between adequate protection and affordability of insurance.
