Core Viewpoint - The 2025 China Wealth Management Forum emphasizes the challenges posed by a low interest rate environment on insurance asset management and the need for strategic responses to enhance risk resilience [1][3]. Group 1: Challenges in Low Interest Rate Environment - The low interest rate environment presents direct challenges for insurance asset management, including the maturity of high-yield fixed income assets and the lagging adjustment of liability costs compared to asset yield declines [3][7]. - Insurance companies face risks of narrowing interest spreads and potential losses, while third-party asset management businesses encounter similar challenges due to client demands for low volatility and stable returns [3][7]. Group 2: Strategic Responses - A collaborative optimization of both asset and liability sides is necessary to enhance overall risk resilience, which includes strategic asset allocation (SAA) that aligns liability duration and costs with assets to reduce mismatch risks [3][7]. - Diversification of assets is crucial, with a focus on long-term equity investments, overseas assets, gold, and alternative assets to overcome development bottlenecks in debt business and increase revenue sources [3][7]. Group 3: Investment Management Optimization - Continuous improvement of the investment management system is essential, leveraging group operational advantages to optimize entrusted relationships and establish a long-term entrusted management system [4][8]. - A culture of investment research should be fostered to create an asset collaboration sharing mechanism and develop a cross-cycle asset allocation system aimed at asset-liability management [4][8].

Group 1: Evolution of Insurance Asset Allocation - The evolution of insurance asset allocation has transitioned from reliance on experience and single yield targets to a multi-objective balancing phase centered on duration, yield, and liquidity [4]. - Currently, the complexity of the environment, including rising geopolitical risks and new accounting standards, necessitates a shift from "what assets to select" to finding "explainable, verifiable, and executable optimal solutions" under multiple constraints [5]. Group 2: Value of Technology in Investment - The primary value of technology in insurance asset management is to make investment decisions more robust rather than more aggressive [7]. - A systematic strategic asset allocation framework has been implemented by the company, focusing on value and profit, exploring AI applications in scenario-based asset allocation [7]. - An example of cross-asset allocation demonstrated that an algorithm reduced capital risk indicators by 15% while maintaining expected surplus, integrating liabilities, capital, returns, and risks into a unified decision-making methodology [7]. Group 3: AI's Role in Insurance Asset Management - AI's role is not to replace decision-makers but to amplify system capabilities, starting from three fundamental aspects rather than market prediction [9]. - The first aspect is the structured processing of high-dimensional data, enabling the identification of structural relationships among thousands of assets and numerous constraints [10]. - The second aspect involves scenario generation and portfolio simulation, allowing for the creation of more realistic potential paths compared to traditional assumptions [10]. - The third aspect is human-machine collaborative decision support, where AI provides decision spaces, risk boundaries, and trade-offs, with final decisions made by the investment decision committee [10]. Group 4: Challenges in AI Application - The true challenge in the technological transformation of insurance asset management lies not in the availability of AI but in whether the organization possesses a compatible decision-making mechanism and culture [12]. - Collaboration among research, risk control, actuarial, and IT departments in a common language is essential, as is management's acceptance of using systems to constrain personal judgment [13]. - Although technology cannot provide direct answers, it helps in approaching long-term optimal solutions amidst uncertainty, maintaining the mission of serving the real economy and social development responsibly [13].
