Moncreiffe will take responsibility for India, Sri Lanka, Australia and New Zealand from November 2, 2026, while joining AIA's Group Executive Committee. He will report to Group Chief Executive and President Lee Yuan Siong, according to Asia Insurance Review.
The appointment gives AIA a named executive across four markets with distinct distribution and insurance priorities. Moncreiffe previously led insurance at HSBC Group and has 20 years of experience across insurance, wealth and strategy roles, the same report said.
