BDO Life chief: Filipino families need a ‘Plan B’ for financial security

The economic landscape heavily influences investment-linked life insurance plans, but traditional life insurance continues to offer stability.

In a statement, Renato Vergel De Dios, president of BDO Life Assurance Company Inc., underscored the company’s advocacy for traditional life insurance and promotes the idea of a “Plan B” for financial security.

De Dios highlighted how the gap between projected and actual GDP growth indicates uncertainty, from pandemic challenges to favorable economic periods.

"A Plan B represents financial protection, helping mitigate risks for families."

He emphasized the critical need for a Plan B, particularly for families facing the loss of a breadwinner during uncertain times.

“A Plan B represents financial protection, helping mitigate risks for families,” he explained.

BDO Life encourages Filipinos to visit BDO branches and consult financial advisors to create a personalized Plan B. For those who prefer a hands-on approach, BDO Life’s online tool, Get A Quote (GAQ), enables users to calculate a customized life insurance plan based on their financial goals and budgets.

With the backing of BDO Unibank, BDO Life offers a wide array of life insurance products covering health, education, savings, and retirement, providing comprehensive solutions for Filipino families.
