“Can a fully online, commission-free virtual insurer become Hong Kong's default consumer health-insurance brand?”
Bowtie is Hong Kong's first authorized virtual life insurer, founded under the HK Insurance Authority's Fast Track scheme. The company sells direct-to-consumer health, life, critical illness, cancer and accident insurance online with no commissioned agents, and has expanded into group/SME insurance and integrated health programs (outpatient, body check, eye care). It operates as a self-licensed insurer rather than a distribution platform.
Bowtie is founded in 2018 and headquartered in Hong Kong.
