About Aetna

Aetna China

As part of an on-going expansion of Aetna's international businesses, Aetna has established a representative office in Shanghai, China. This is the first step in a two-year process required before an insurer can apply for a license in China. Aetna, through its international division, Aetna Global Benefits (AGB), received official approval in late March 2008 from the China Insurance Regulatory Commission to establish the Shanghai office.

For the next two years, Aetna will conduct a more detailed exploration of strategic development options. Currently, the company is conducting in-depth market research to better understand the health insurance market in China and determine what value it can add to the industry.
