The Monetary Authority of Macao (AMCM) and the Insurance and Pension Funds Supervision Authority (ASF) of Portugal successfully co-organised the "2026 Training Action for Supervisors of the Association of Lusophone Insurance Supervisors (ASEL)", which lasted two weeks. The initiative included a conference, training sessions and a study visit, culminating in a closing ceremony at which certificates were presented to 18 supervisors from Angola, Brazil, Cabo Verde, Macao, Mozambique, São Tomé and Príncipe and Timor-Leste.

At the closing ceremony, Ms Chan Kuan I, Member of the Board of Directors of AMCM, stressed that the ASEL training action constituted an effective platform for sharing experiences and pooling expertise. She further noted that the in-depth presentations by the trainers provided relevant contributions to the participating supervisors.

The official emphasised that the initiative not only enabled the strengthening of skills in the area of insurance supervision, but also promoted greater mutual understanding and closer ties among Portuguese-speaking countries and regions, creating a solid foundation for future co-operation in the field of financial supervision.
