Group 1: Insurance Promotion and Adoption - The government and insurance companies are actively promoting yak insurance to protect herders' interests amid increasing risks from infectious diseases and natural disasters [1]. - A significant barrier to adoption is the cultural perception of yaks as family members, making herders reluctant to accept ear tagging as it is seen as harmful [1]. - Ping An's team, led by Badu Qiuza, engages with herders to explain the benefits of ear tags as a form of protection and a key to quick claims processing [1]. Group 2: Technological Integration and Service Improvement - Since 2022, herders only need to pay 6 yuan per yak annually, supported by central government subsidies, to receive coverage for various risks [2]. - Ping An has developed a Tibetan language version of the "Ai Nong Bao" app to provide weather alerts and help herders prepare for adverse conditions, thereby reducing livestock mortality [2]. - The use of advanced technology, including "cow face recognition" and electronic ear tags, has streamlined the claims process, allowing for claims to be settled within 24 hours of reporting [2]. Group 3: Performance Metrics and Future Commitment - As of November 2025, Ping An's local branch has processed 2,891 claims, disbursing 15.095 million yuan, with a 100% claim closure rate and an average claim processing time of just 6.6 days [2]. - By August 2025, over 230,000 yaks in Tibet had been tagged, achieving a tagging rate of over 95% [2]. - Ping An is committed to its mission of serving the public through financial services, leveraging its dual strategy of comprehensive finance and technology to support rural revitalization and high-quality economic development [2].
