What Looper does
Looper Insurance Agency Limited (智環保險代理有限公司) is a Hong Kong-licensed general insurance agency (Insurance Authority Licence GA1034) founded in 2019 by Felix Kong, who holds a personal technical representative licence and brings over 15 years of Hong Kong general insurance market experience. The firm operates from a headquarters in Kowloon Bay with a 1-10 headcount and serves both individual consumers and small-to-medium enterprises across 15+ general insurance lines spanning personal (motor, home, travel, domestic helper, EV, personal cyber), commercial (Employees' Compensation under Cap. 282, Public Liability, D&O, Professional Indemnity, Cyber, Business Interruption, Contractors All Risks), and specialty classes (Fine Art via Lloyd's-accessible Circle, Chubb, and Zurich; Marine Cargo; Event Cancellation; Clinical Trial; Northbound Cross-Border Car). The agency reports having handled over 10,000 insurance policies and served 2,000+ clients, with a stated 4.6/5 customer rating derived from on-site testimonials.
The technology layer consists of a digital workflow supporting instant quote generation, paperless policy processing, and 24/7 WhatsApp-based communication (wa.me/85226336813), supplemented by a 50+ article bilingual Insurance Wiki content library categorized across Cantonese-language sections for SEO-driven top-of-funnel lead generation. Distribution is direct-to-client only — no intermediaries or branches — with carrier relationships established directly with Chubb, Zurich, AXA, and Lloyd's-accessible Circle (fine art capacity up to US$250M), enabling in-house pricing negotiation, policy placement, and claims handling rather than referral routing.
The revenue model is transaction-based commission: Looper places policies with its carrier panel and earns commissions per policy, with bespoke quote-based pricing across all lines (no published tiers, no self-serve digital purchase). The agency is privately held, founder-led, and reports no external funding, parent company, or institutional investment. Marketing channels span WhatsApp Business, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn, the Insurance Wiki blog, and seasonal promotional campaigns.

Looper competitors and assessment
Company assessmentOthers
- Chubb Hong Kong: Global insurer and a core panel partner of Looper for fine art and commercial lines. While a carrier (not a peer agency), Chubb sells direct in HK and competes with Looper for the same end customers on overlapping product lines.
- MoneyHero: Hong Kong insurance and financial product comparison platform (formerly CompareHero). Adjacent to Looper's intermediary role but operates as an aggregator linking consumers to carriers, not as a licensed placing agency.
Broad incumbents
- Lockton Hong Kong: World's largest independent insurance brokerage with a Hong Kong office. Competes with Looper for commercial insurance placements, particularly mid-market and specialty lines, with deeper carrier relationships and global reach.
- Howden Hong Kong: Global insurance broker group (formed via JLT and Howden merger) operating in Hong Kong. Competes with Looper for specialty commercial placements and offers broader geographic and product reach than Looper's HK-only footprint.
- Aon Hong Kong: Global insurance and reinsurance broker with significant Hong Kong presence. Overlaps with Looper in commercial risk advisory and specialty lines but focuses on large corporate and multinational clients across all of APAC.
- Marsh (Hong Kong): Global insurance broker and risk advisor with a major Hong Kong office. Competes with Looper for commercial accounts (D&O, cyber, CAR, marine cargo) but serves much larger enterprise clients and operates with a global brokerage model rather than HK retail focus.
- WTW (Willis Towers Watson) Hong Kong: Global advisory, broking, and solutions company with a Hong Kong presence. Competes with Looper for commercial risk placements and employee benefits-related coverage for larger HK employers.
Emerging players
- OneDegree: Hong Kong InsurTech offering digital pet, home, and cyber insurance. Comparable to Looper as a Hong Kong tech-forward insurance player, though OneDegree operates as a carrier/MGA rather than an intermediary.
- Bowtie Life Insurance: Hong Kong's first virtual insurer offering direct digital life and health products. Although a carrier (not an agency), Bowtie shares Looper's 'next-gen' positioning and targets the same digitally-native HK consumer base.
Direct peers
- Avo Insurance: Hong Kong-based digital-first general insurer/MGA offering multi-line personal and commercial products to individuals and SMEs. Closest comparable in HK by target customer (HK individuals + SMEs), digital-first distribution philosophy, and broad multi-line approach.
