KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 18 (Bernama) -- Hong Kong’s non-life insurance industry has shown an ability to sustain profitable underwriting over the past five years, supported by the performance in the general liability and property damage lines of business, according to a new AM Best report.
The global credit rating agency said accident & health (A&H) coverage remained the largest contributor to gross written premiums (GWP) between 2020 and 2024, followed by general liability, which includes employees’ compensation, and property damage.
When combined with motor, these four lines accounted for nearly 89 per cent of Hong Kong’s non-life segment GWP of HK$100.5 billion (US$12.9 billion) in 2024, AM Best said in a statement. (US$1=RM4.07)
The report noted that the industry’s overall operating profit reached HK$8.1 billion in 2024, including HK$3.3 billion in undiscounted underwriting profits. The 10 largest direct non-life insurers generated a combined underwriting profit of HK$552.8 million, representing about 17 per cent of the market’s total underwriting profit.
“The overall performance of Hong Kong’s non-life market is driven by factors such as increased consumer awareness, ongoing regulatory initiatives, and the development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area project,” said AM Best senior financial analyst, Stephanie Mi.
She added that a stable economic environment has also contributed to the sector’s resilience.
Based on data by the Hong Kong Insurance Authority, AM Best’s analysis stated that the direct non-life segment remains highly competitive, with no single insurer holding more than a 10 per cent market share. The non-life segment has maintained a generally stable momentum, recording GWP growth of around three to eight per cent annually from 2020 to 2023.
A&H insurance continues to be a key growth area, driven by rising demand for travel insurance and group medical coverage, especially in the post-pandemic period.
AM Best cautioned that moderate economic expansion combined with external headwinds could increase capital market volatility, potentially affecting asset prices and financial stability.

(NASDAQ: DVLT) (“Datavault AI” or the “Company”), a leader in data monetization, credentialing, and digital engagement technologies, today announced that its board of directors (the “Datavault Board”) has set Dec. 24, 2025, as the distribution date for the Dream Bowl 2026 Meme Coin token (the “Meme Coin”) to all eligible record equityholders of Datavault AI. Dec. 24, 2025, will also be the distribution date for Datavault AI’s voluntary distribution of Meme Coins to record holders of common stock of Scilex Holding Company (NASDAQ: SCLX), which is being made as a token of Datavault AI’s appreciation for Scilex’s relationship with Datavault AI as a significant stockholder of Datavault AI, licensing partner and co-sponsor of the Dream Bowl XIV event to be held on Jan. 11, 2026. The previously announced record date for the distribution of the Meme Coins was Nov. 25, 2025.
Datavault AI expects to begin mailing detailed instructions, on or about Dec. 12, 2025, regarding wallet setup, token access, and distribution procedures to stockholders of record of both Datavault AI and Scilex on the books and records of the transfer agents of Datavault AI and Scilex. Datavault AI also expects to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about the same date outlining such instructions. Any stockholders of Datavault AI and/or Scilex that hold their shares of common stock of Datavault AI and/or Scilex in “street name” through a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization should receive such instructions and other information from their broker, bank, dealer or other similar organization once such organizations receive the instructions from Datavault AI.
In order to receive the Meme Coins, all eligible recipients will be required to open a digital wallet with Datavault AI and execute an Opt-In Agreement, pursuant to which such holders will agree, among other things, to the payment conditions set forth therein, and acknowledge that such holders understand the process for receiving the Meme Coins, that the Datavault Board can change the record date or payment date or revoke the distribution prior to the payment date, and that the Meme Coins may not have or maintain any value.
Datavault AI remains firmly committed to stockholder value creation and continuous innovation. Datavault AI will commemorate the upcoming Dream Bowl XIV through this one-time distribution of the Meme Coins to eligible record equity holders of Datavault AI and record holders of common stock of Scilex. Each holder will receive an exclusive commemorative digital collectible designed with utility features, including immutable proof of ownership, embedded ticketing details, and exclusive content related to invited athletes, game highlights, and event access. The Meme Coins will be airdropped to DataVault® wallets beginning on Dec 24, 2025, subject to recipients opening a digital wallet with Datavault AI and executing an Opt-In Agreement (including to provide any additional documentation requested by Datavault AI to verify any shares of common stock of Datavault AI and/or Scilex that are held in “street name” with a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization).
The record date for the distribution may be changed by the Datavault Board for any reason at any time prior to the actual distribution date, and payment of the distribution is conditioned upon the Datavault Board not having revoked the distribution prior to the distribution date, including for a material change to the solvency or surplus analysis presented to the Datavault Board.
The Meme Coin is a digital collectible intended solely for personal, non-commercial use in connection with the Dream Bowl XIV event to be held on Jan. 11, 2026. The Meme Coin does not: (i) represent or confer any equity, voting, dividend, profit-sharing, or ownership rights in Datavault AI or any other entity; (ii) provide any right to receive monetary payments, distributions, or appreciation; or (iii) create any expectation of profit or reliance on the managerial or entrepreneurial efforts of Datavault AI or others. The Meme Coin is not designed or intended to function as an investment, currency, or financial product, and it is not being offered, sold, or distributed for fundraising or capital-raising purposes. Use of the Meme Coin is limited to entertainment, event-access, and digital-collectible functions. Any transferability features are provided solely to support personal digital item portability and not to facilitate or imply investment or speculative use.
The Meme Coins will be tradeable on Datavault AI’s proprietary Information Data Exchange, which acts as a digital marketplace where registered buyers and sellers can securely exchange payment for data assets, including the Meme Coins. Datavault AI will notify holders of Meme Coins via email when they can commence trading the Meme Coins on the Information Data Exchange. Datavault AI currently anticipates that trading of the Meme Coins on such exchange will commence on or about Jan. 11, 2026. Holders of Meme Coins may also be able to export the Meme Coins to other digital wallets. While there will be no fees associated with an eligible holder of Datavault AI securities or Scilex common stock opening a digital wallet with Datavault AI for purposes of accepting the Meme Coins in the Distribution, trades of Meme Coins made on the Information Data Exchange will incur ordinary course trading fees that are based on transaction value and embedded within the terms of the applicable smart contract.

“Adding a 64GB DDR5-6400 ECC CSODIMM strengthens SMART’s leadership in ruggedized, high-performance memory solutions,” said Arthur Sainio, director of Integrated Memory DRAM product marketing at Penguin Solutions. “Industrial and networking customers now have access to both high-capacity and wide-temperature support in a very compact DDR5 SODIMM design.”
The CSODIMMs include a CKD (clock driver) that regenerates and amplifies the clock signal for maintaining signal integrity, synchronicity timing and reducing errors at high speeds.
With the introduction of the 64GB capacity point, SMART’s DDR5 SODIMM family now spans 16GB to 64GB, including capacities of 16GB, 32GB, 48GB, and now 64GB. This expansion enables system designers to choose the optimal memory density and performance profile for their application needs.
Key features of the SMART 64GB DDR5-6400 ECC CSODIMM include:
- Capacity: 64GB (expanding DDR5 SODIMM portfolio from 16GB–64GB)
- Data rate: up to 6400 MT/s
- ECC support for improved reliability
- Compact CSODIMM form factor for space-constrained systems
- Available in C-temp and I-temp for harsh deployment conditions

Vedanta Resources Posts Strong H1 Revenue, EBITDA Growth
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 8 (Bernama) -- Vedanta Resources Limited (VRL), a global transition metals, critical minerals, energy and technology company, posted stronger financial performance in the first half of fiscal year 2026 (H1FY26), with revenue rising eight per cent to US$9.367 billion, driven by favourable commodity prices and operational efficiencies. (US$1=RM4.10)
The company also recorded a six per cent rise in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) to US$2.752 billion, while profit after tax before special items increased seven per cent to US$738 million.
VRL’s net debt to EBITDA ratio improved to 2.0 times, with cash and cash equivalents of US$2.628 billion. Return on capital employed held at about 23 per cent, which the company said reflected disciplined capital deployment across its portfolio.
In a statement, the company said it refinanced US$550 million of high-cost debt, reducing overall interest cost to around 10 per cent and extending its average maturity to roughly 4.5 years.
In the first half, the company invested nearly US$0.9 billion in growth capital expenditure (capex) and delivered record production across multiple segments. Aluminium output inched up one per cent to 1,222 kilotonnes (kt), alumina rose 19 per cent to 1,240 kt, and Zinc India’s mined metal production increased one per cent to 523 kt.
Konkola Copper Mines ramped up output following its restart, recording 41 kt of metal in concentrate and 51 kt of finished volumes.
Notably, the Vedanta group’s aluminium company, BALCO, produced its first metal from what VRL described as India’s most powerful 525-kiloampere smelter, while Lanjigarh in Odisha delivered the first alumina from its expanded refinery.
S&P Global and Moody’s upgraded VRL’s outlook to Positive, while Fitch affirmed its B+/Stable rating, citing an improved credit profile supported by refinancing progress and steady operational performance across subsidiaries.

UnionPay Hosts Global Partners Conference 2025 - Innovations in Open Payments: Sharing Success in Payment Connectivity, Building a Connected Global Payment Network with the New Four-Party Model
 |
| UnionPay hosts Global Partners Conference 2025. |
On November 28, 11 cross-border payment cooperation documents were signed in Shanghai, China, between UnionPay and 11 major institutions, including the Bank of China, PayNet (Malaysia), Uzcard (Uzbekistan), HUMO (Uzbekistan), IPC (Kyrgyzstan), Hong Leong Bank (Malaysia), OCBC Bank (Singapore), Banco do Brasil (Brazil), FonePay (Nepal), and Bluecode (Austria).
These signings were key achievements of the UnionPay Global Partners Conference 2025 - Innovations in Open Payments: Sharing Success in Payment Connectivity. The event gathered representatives from 72 organizations worldwide, including central banks, commercial banks, and payment institutions to witness a broader range of achievements.
Bridging Borders: a Connected Global Payment Network
Amid evolving global trade and economic dynamics, a cross-border and connected payment systems has become an international consensus. Starting in Asia, UnionPay launched payment connectivity collaborations with partners in Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, and Singapore, later expanding to South America and Africa. In total, UnionPay is working with partners in about 50 countries and regions worldwide to build a connected global payment network.
As Mr. Dong Junfeng, Chairman of China UnionPay and UnionPay International stated in his remarks, tens of millions of micro, small, and medium-sized merchants worldwide now have access to UnionPay's inclusive and extensive global network, unlocking China's huge consumer markets, vitalizing global economic. Building a connected global network is a long-term, collective endeavor. UnionPay pursues mutually beneficial partnerships that leverage strengths of both issuing and acquiring sides for industry shared growth and fair profits distribution.
Shared Value: an Open and Inclusive New Four-Party Model
To adapt to the evolving payment industry, UnionPay has been building an open and inclusive New Four-Party Model. Integrating bilateral and multilateral connections, the new model incorporates extended stakeholders, including account providers such as wallet operators and mobile device manufacturers, as well as acceptance side players like acquiring service providers and aggregators.
The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) Card Center has long collaborated closely with UnionPay. In November 2025, it became the first bank to issue the UnionPay multi-currency card in Turkey. In the China-Vietnam QR payment linkage project, the two enabled reciprocal acceptance of merchant QR codes, exemplifying payments' role in advancing Bilateral exchanges.
Mr. Setiawan Cosmas Suwono, Head of Committee - International Payment Systems at the Indonesian Payment System Association (ASPI), noted that QRIS -- Indonesia's national QR code standard was launched in 2019. This year, ASPI and UnionPay signed an MOU and initiated system integration and mutual recognition of standards, enhancing cross-border payment speed and transparency.
As part of the ASPI project, Bank of China Jakarta Branch provides local currency settlement, exemplifying how stakeholders can play their roles in making international payments more efficient, secure, and convenient.
Mr. Sidney D. Massunaga, Head of Assets and Liabilities, Wealth and Personal Banking at HSBC, cited the HSBC Pulse UnionPay Dual Currency Diamond Credit Card and the PayMe wallet as iconic collaboration, drawing on their strengths in customer reach, use cases, and service capabilities to deliver smoother and more cost-effective payment solutions. HSBC will continue working with UnionPay to enhance payment connectivity.
During the Conference, Mr. Guo Dayong, Vice Chairman and President of China UnionPay, announced the Joint Initiative on Open Payments. 72 institutions committed to a connected and value-sharing global payment network upholding openness, mutual benefits, standards compatibility, security, and controllability.
For Future: AI Adoption in Payments
Efficiency and security are the twin pillars of payment requiring equal emphasis. While cross-border connectivity benefits tens of millions of small and medium-sized merchants, longer transaction chains and complex data pose new challenges to risk management. The risk profile of cross-border payments differs markedly from that of local transactions. Tracing high-risk activities such as money laundering and detecting fraud accurately have become a key concern for regulators and financial institutions around the world.
"UnionPay's solution is AI," said Mr. Dong Junfeng. Existing large AI models can verify merchant authenticity using a single photo, and outperform human judgment in monitoring high-risk transactions. By accurately reconstructing fund flows, such models have reduced the time to respond to cross-border fraudulent transactions from two or three days to just one day.
Also AI is profoundly transforming the entire payment value chain, making payments smarter, faster, and more efficient. UnionPay is fostering an AI ecosystem through joint innovation with research institutes, industry partners, and leading universities, sharing outcomes to drive industry-wide AI-powered growth.
Guided by the vision of "Trusted Ties, Shared Success", UnionPay will continue collaborating with global partners under the New Four-Party Model to build an efficient and secure connected global payment network. It aims to support global payment industry development and ensure the real economy and users worldwide can benefit from fast, safe, and reliable payment services.
