“moron in a hurry”
Hong Kong Court of Appeal allowed appeal of China second largest insurer, Ping An Insurance (Group)
Company of China, Ltd. (中國平安保險(集團)股份有限公司) (the “respondent”) in relation to it trademarks
“Ping An” and “平安” (11 January 2008).
In a judgement delivered by the Rogers VP, the court rejected the application by the applicant
Ping An Securities Limited (described as a “small broker with a very limited client base”) for a
declaration for invalidity of the registration of the respondent's trademarks on the ground that,
inter alia, there should be no confusion between the applicant's and the respondent's business and that
the “distinction between the businesses would at once be obvious even to the
proverbial “moron in a hurry”” .
