June is Financial Independence Month HAVE YOU MET YOUR PERFECT MATCH?

Why it is so hard for us to entrust our money to any financial advisors though they’re legit or licensed to do so. Of course, it’s our hard-earned money. Who are the only person we can trust about this matter? Yes, our financial advisors must be the one we know, it could be our relatives, friends, referred by our friends or our partners in life. But, what if, we don’t have any relatives or friends in this line of business? Do we settle down with referred by any? Yes, we do! But I have to do some research, at least, I know something about the product they’re selling.

Some questions I have to consider before buying is:
1. If she/he’s the one who I can entrust my money with?
2. If she/he’s knowledgeable about the one she/he is selling?
3. What is his/her intention with me? Is she/he legit?
4. If she/he is just taking advantage of me.
5. Do I really need this insurance?

Because of these so many unanswered questions we ended up to Do-It-Yourself financial planning. But despite the growing information and advice on personal finance, many still lack an investing mindset. This means looking beyond traditional savings instruments to achieve future goals. In fact, Sun Life’s SOLAR (Study of Lifestyle and Relationships) reveals that only 38% of Filipinos are willing to take investment risks in order to earn more and that only 8% actually invest.  Furthermore, only 16% claim to have life insurance despite 88% of Filipinos worrying about their financial situation in case something happens to the breadwinner.

Clearly, many Filipinos still need guidance and advice on how to achieve lifetime financial security. A role that a Sun Life Financial Advisor can fulfill with their professionalism, a caring attitude, a winning mindset, and an inspired vision.

It’s a brilliant match!

New launched “Talk to An Advisor” tool

How does it work? Simply go to our website to access Advisor Match. Enter your location to generate a list of advisors in your vicinity. Each profile contains a short description of their credentials and how they can extend help – a very nifty way to show you what they have to offer. Such freedom to choose a Financial Advisor is both innovative and relevant, especially for consumers who want personalized service on-demand and at their convenience.

Make your brighter choice!

More than a handy online tool, Advisor Match is about empowering Filipinos to be more exacting and selective when looking for a financial partner. A series of online videos called “My Dream Advisor” puts a humorous twist on the challenging journey that comes with seeking one’s perfect advisor match. Taking a cue from the 90s dating game shows, the videos feature searchers faced with a rather disappointing line-up of advisor searchees – each embodying undesirable characteristics that have unfairly stereotyped life insurance agents for the longest time.

For its part, Sun Life emphasizes four core values that every financial advisor should possess: (1) professional in doing business; (2) one who cares for your welfare; (3) a desire to win for your dreams; and (4) an inspiring commitment to serve rather than sell.  These values define Sun Life’s over 11,000 financial advisors. “We’ve seen a growing interest in personal finance lately with the number of inquiries and requests for advisor referrals doubling the past couple of years.  We are happy to share that we are now empowering Filipinos to choose their very own Sun Life Advisor with just the click of a button. With Sun Life’s Advisor Match, they can be assured of finding competent and committed financial advisors to help them achieve their financial goals,” affirmed Sun Life Philippines Chief Marketing Officer Ms. Mylene Lopa. After all, finding your #SunLifePerfectMatch should never be difficult.

My take on this event is, I realized that the most beneficial insurance plan to buy is Life Insurance and Memorial Plans; Why Memorial Plans? We all get there right? And why Life Insurance? For me, life and death is the only things we have to be prepared of and nothing follows. And I, Thank You!
