Besides the existing insurance products, in the future, both sides will coordinate to develop various product packages to meet the specific needs of different SHB customer segments as well as to bring customers the comprehensive benefits and sustainable values. Also, Dai-ichi Life Vietnam and SHB will organise regular seminars to deliver premier financial protection solutions to customers.
