AIG Life's Stuart Harrison will be leaving the role of managing director of the group to take up the role of chief executive for AXA Hong Kong.

Harrison has been managing director of AIG Life since 2006, prior to which he was vice president and chief sales officer for AIG Life Korea.

AIG Life is yet to name a successor for Harrison but said they would be doing so "in due course".

Harrison will step into his new role on April 14, and will report to Mike Bishop, regional chief executive of AXA Asia Life.

Mark Wilson is the president of American International Assurance (AIA), of which AIG Life is a subsidiary.

Wilson said he and Harrison had had an ongoing dialogue about his impending departure, adding that the team supporting the business is "talented and well placed to continue to operate the business as usual".

"We are confident that the support, relationships and service levels for our customers and business partners remain undiminished," Wilson said.

The statement from AXA said Hong Kong is the group's largest operation in Asia.
