Life insurance is a vital component and product offering for our target market segments, in particular, the affluent and upper class consumer, as well as the SME and household banking segments. We are very excited to collaborate with AIA Vietnam as part of this bancassurance relationship and look forward to making the best-in-class life insurance products available through our distribution network.”.
