AIA Philam Life policyholders will soon be able to invest in some of the biggest companies in the world thanks to AIA Philam Life Elite Funds, a selection of premier multi-manager solutions. With these funds, Filipinos can easily access investments previously limited to foreign and institutional investors. The AIA Philam Life Elite Funds will be available in investment-linked products MoneyWorks and Family Provider, giving customers more investment options that can potentially maximize growth over time.
The expertly-managed Elite Funds
AIA Philam Life partnered with AIA Investment Management Pte. Ltd. (AIA IM), an AIA-affiliated company considered as the hub for regional investment management within the AIA Group that provides investment solutions for its customers. Through this collaboration, AIA Philam Life introduced Elite Funds which are tailored to policyholders’ risk profile and long-term financial goals.
Policyholders with a low to medium risk profile yet seeking for long-term growth may choose the Elite Conservative Fund. Those ready to take high risks for higher than average return may go for the Elite Adventurous Fund. Policyholders with a more moderate risk profile may consider the Elite Balanced Fund.
The three Elite Funds are invested in combinations of funds managed by AIA IM and Best-in-Class external asset managers. This partnership approach with Baillie Gifford, Wellington Management and BlackRock allows AIA Philam Life to take advantage of their expertise in delivering long-term returns.
