“At Manulife, the Philippines stands out as a high-potential market for growth. Given its hyper-digital young population empowered to take charge of their health and finances, the country is poised to better address this demographic’s evolving financial behavior. By giving them access to Manulife’s innovative insurance and investment solutions that may help best address their needs, we are strongly positioned to help more Filipinos achieve their financial aspirations,” said Rahul Hora, President and Chief Executive Officer, Manulife Philippines.

Honorable David Bruce Hartman, Ambassador of Canada to the Philippines, also graced his presence during a breakfast session.
Manulife operates five businesses in the country: Manulife Philippines, Manulife China Bank Life Assurance Corporation, and Manulife Investment Management and Trust Corporation, as well as its two offshoring companies, Manulife IT Delivery Center Asia and Manulife Business Processing Services. With almost 10,000 employees in the country, Manulife in the Philippines has the second largest employee base, next to its headquarters in Canada.
Operating in the Philippines for 116 years, Manulife continues to nurture the trust and confidence of its customers and stakeholders by offering best-in-class products and services that are attuned to Filipinos’ evolving health, savings, investment and protection needs. As one of the country’s most established and respected global life insurers, Manulife remains committed to be the industry’s most digital, customer-centric leader. As part of its efforts to drive this ambition further, Manulife recently launched the new Manulife Online mobile app, available on the App Store and Google Play, to make customer experience more convenient. It also continually expands its agency force to bring more employment opportunities to those who want to thrive in an inclusive and high-growth environment while serving Filipinos when it matters most.
To deliver meaningful programs that advance their Impact Agenda in the Philippines, Manulife also forged strategic partnerships with respected non-government organizations to help empower sustained health and well-being, drive inclusive economic opportunity, and accelerate a more sustainable future.
