HONG KONG, November 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In 2025, Metis Global Group deepens its partnership with the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII), advancing initiatives in three core areas: talent development, industry culture and international knowledge exchange. Spanning the year, this collaborative effort encompasses the LEAD program, sponsorship of international events and contributions to authoritative publications, creating a cohesive network of professional engagement.
In September, Metis and CII jointly organized the fourth edition of the LEAD (Learning, Enhanced and Development) program. Through 15 hours of structured professional development, the program guided insurance and financial planning practitioners in strengthening fundamental skills in professional ethics, customer service, risk management, compliance awareness and interdisciplinary knowledge. On November 25, Dr. Cheung, founder and chairman of Metis Global Group, attended the graduation ceremony to present the certificates and congratulate the participants. The LEAD program, now in its fourth consecutive year, has become a key continuing education platform for insurance and financial planning professionals in Hong Kong, further supporting the industry’s journey towards professionalization.
In support of workplace culture and diverse values, Metis is proud to sponsor Dive In 2025 Hong Kong, the insurance industry’s annual global platform for advancing diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I). The theme “Together We Thrive: Building Tomorrow’s Success Through Belonging” highlighted how belonging drives corporate culture, innovation and talent development. Our participation aims to foster dialogue on leadership and inclusive product innovation to build a more resilient and inclusive ecosystem.
Beyond the continued focus on talent development and corporate culture, Metis has also deepened its commitment to professional dialogue. The August-September issue of The Asia-Pacific Journal featured an article written by a specialist from Metis Global (Cook Islands) Limited, providing a practical examination of how Cook Islands trusts support multi-generational wealth succession. Centered on the principle of “planning early to ensure intentions are achieved”, the article explains how trusts help families balance asset protection with long-term governance, while highlighting the Cook Islands’ strengths in legal independence and cross-border enforceability. Through this publication, Metis brings its professional insights to a wider international audience and further strengthens its presence in the field of family wealth planning in Asia.
Looking back, Metis’ initiatives for 2025 reflect a consistent strategic direction: using professional education as a foundation, cultural engagement as an extension, and knowledge sharing as a bridge to foster professional progress on multiple levels. Through the LEAD program, Dive In’s cultural advocacy and the global reach of our expert commentary, Metis has solidified its position as a bridge between sectors. We unite the spheres of insurance, wealth management and international trust to foster a closer network of collaboration.
Going forward, Metis will continue to strengthen its strategic partnership with CII and plans to expand cross-regional and cross-sector initiatives. Our goal is to raise the global visibility and standards of Asia within the financial landscape. Committed to talent cultivation, professional development and long-term knowledge sharing, the Group works alongside its partners to shape a sustainable, open and inclusive international professional project.
