its seventh annual Regional Day of Service in the Asia Pacific (5-9 November)

across the region, employees from both the general and life insurance

around the theme, Education@Heart. Chubb employees led a variety of activities,
with a focus on skills-based volunteerism, to meet the needs of local
communities where they live and work.

Paul McNamee, Regional President for
Chubb in Asia Pacific said: "Education
has the power to bring about impactful change to the lives of individuals
throughout their life journey. Our aim is that the Education@Heart program will
provide children with the knowledge and skills they require to succeed later in
life and fulfill the hopes of their communities.
Since its inauguration in 2012, the
Regional Day of Service has become part of our corporate identity, with the
spirit of giving deeply ingrained in the hearts and minds of Chubb employees.
We're very proud of the way our employees have embraced the values of volunteerism
and philanthropy and how they have strengthened employee engagement.
"

Cunqiang Li, Chief Operating Officer of Chubb
Life added:
"Spending time with, and giving our attention to, children
in the communities that we serve is one of the highlights of the year for us at
Chubb Life. Our Education@Heart program includes
activities from science and technology to protecting the environment. All are
designed to spark curiosity, nurture creativity and sharpen the concentration
of every child. I believe that it is these qualities that will equip today's
young people to succeed in our rapidly changing world and we are proud to play
our part in helping them."
