Supported by a communications campaign that draws attention to the impact of inflation on long-term savings, the programme will comprise of a series of activities, including town-storming, door-to-door calls and promotions, the company said.
Nearly 4,000 members of the Ceylinco Life sales team will be engaged in meeting the prospective candidates for retirement plans as well as the existing holders of Ceylinco Life Retirements who may need to consider increased investments to keep pace with inflation.
May has been the company’s designated Retirement Planning Month since 2008 and every year, the sales team is tasked with focusing on this segment of business throughout the month.
The campaign would also be hosted on Ceylinco Life’s digital platforms to invite the members of the public to engage in the discussion and find out how much of funds are required to supplement their respective individual retirement needs.
