Sun Life of Canada (Philippines), Inc., the top-ranked and the longest-standing life insurance company in the Philippines, aims to serve five million clients by 2020 under its new five-year growth plan that is dubbed as "PH Rise "
"Rise PH" financial inclusion champions in the Philippines, where only a small percentage of the whole population utilizes financial products such as insurance and investments. "Despite the bright prospects that the country's economy has, still prosperity has not trickled down to the more disadvantaged sectors of society. We have to address this," Sun Life President and CEO Riza Mantaring said. "Sun Life would like to see more Filipinos looking forward to a brighter future and the whole country rising to greater heights. We would like to start by targeting five million clients in five years.
While it may seem like an ambitious goal, Mantaring believes that it's best to set the high targets. "At Sun Life, we always dare to dream big - more so if the stakes are high. This is the country's future we're talking about, after all," she explained. "Setting high targets will push us to do more, and will allow us to make a greater contribution to our country's future."
In order to reach the company's goals, several initiatives will be launched under "Rise PH". These initiatives will have Sun Life reaching out to a broader market, further boosting its financial literacy advocacy, and expanding its reach nationwide.
