AIA Hong Kong Launches Large-scale Multimedia Advertising Campaign　Starring Singer Hins Cheung on the Four Highlights of its MPF Scheme

27 May 2022

MPF is one of the key retirement pillars of the general public. As a trusted pension partner of employees, AIA Hong Kong shares members' concern about MPF performance and has been providing highly competitive MPF products and services to help them live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives. To enable members to have a better grip of the highlights of its MPF scheme, the Company launches a large-scale advertising campaign that features singer Hins Cheung and rolls out today throughout the city.

The brand-new advertising campaign aims to accentuate the four highlights of AIA MPF scheme in a fun and light-hearted fashion where Hins Cheung plays the roles of a courier boy, a tailor, an accountant and an architect:

AIA Hong Kong ranks No. 1 among MPF service providers in terms of average returns of overall MPF funds in 2021¹;
Over 99% of AIA MPF members achieved a positive return²;
MPF member accounts achieved an average cumulative 3-year investment return of over 28%³;
AIA Hong Kong won numerous MPF awards: MPF Ratings' Gold Rated Scheme, Best Tax Deductible Voluntary Contribution (TVC) Provider, Environmentally Responsible, etc.⁴

The advertising series will be rolled out on both online and offline media platforms, including trams and buses, MTR stations and social media.

Remarks:

Calculation period of the above average cumulative returns is from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021. Fund performance is calculated on a Hong Kong dollar-denominated NAV-to-NAV basis. The performance ranking is based on the comparison of simple average returns of all MPF constituent funds on MPF provider level (excluding funds launched less than one year), and does not represent the rankings of returns of all constituent funds under AIA's MPF Scheme ("overall MPF funds") in their respective fund categories. The average returns of AIA's overall MPF funds in the past 5 calendar years and year-to-date (as at 28 February 2022) are: 19.94% (2017), -8.18% (2018), 13.99% (2019), 11.02% (2020), 4.38% (2021) and -4.87% (year-to-date as at 28 February 2022). Investment involves risk and past performance is not indicative of future performance. The above information is for reference only and is not and should not be taken as financial or investment advice, offer or solicitation to subscribe for any investment products (including MPF scheme). If one is to compare performance of MPF funds, comparison should be made over a longer period of time on the net investment performance of funds with similar/comparable risk levels, investment strategies and objectives. Before making any investment decision, you must carefully assess your own risk tolerance level and financial circumstances, and refer to the relevant MPF scheme brochure for details (including risk factors and charges).

The calculation of aggregate cumulative return of the relevant members during the Calculation Period is calculated as follows: (X – Y) / Y . Where (X) is referring to the sum of account balance as at the end of the period and total amount withdrawn during the period; (Y) is referring to the sum of account balance as at the beginning of the period, total contributions and transfer-in assets during the period . The average AUM of relevant member accounts is calculated by averaging their annual average balances during the calculation period. The average cumulative return weighted by AUM of all relevant members accounts during the period is calculated by cumulative returns of all relevant member accounts during the period weighted by average AUM of relevant member accounts during the period. The above return does not represent the actual or future return of individual members, nor does it represent the actual return of the constituent funds of AIA MPF Scheme during the calculation period.
