The thought of retirement typically spurs a fear of the future, especially with the anticipation of having no income during one’s golden years. But while many Filipinos consider retirement a high financial priority, only 14% are currently preparing for it, according to the Sun Life Asia Financial Resilience Index 2024.
“Planning for the future can be overwhelming, especially as Filipinos strive to meet the needs of the present. The good news is, more and more people are starting to recognize its importance. To leverage this, Sun Life was inspired to create a financial solution that will make financial planning for the future a more delightful experience,” Sun Life Philippines Chief Client Experience & Marketing Officer Carla Gonzalez-Chong said. “That is how our latest protection and savings plan, Sun Life Secure Income, was born.”
