Committed to make investing an even more delightful experience for its clients, Sun Life Asset Management Company, Inc. (SLAMCI) has partnered with Banco De Oro (BDO), Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), and Metrobank for its Bills Payment Program.

The Bills Payment Program enables clients to make additional investments in peso-denominated Sun Life Prosperity Funds via a bank partner’s various payment channels: online banking, mobile banking, automated teller machine (ATM), or over-the-counter (OTC).

“We’d like to offer clients comfort and convenience in their investing experience, knowing just how demanding their daily lives can be,” SLAMCI President Valerie Pama said. “By enhancing the Bills Payment Program, and with the help of our bank partners, our clients can effectively integrate investing in their lifestyle and be on their way to prosperity.”

For online banking payments, Sun Life Prosperity Fund investors who are BDO, BPI, or Metrobank accountholders can make additional investments by enrolling the intended Sun Life Prosperity Fund/s as a biller in the banks’respective online platforms, then proceeding with payment.

This functionality can also be enjoyed using the banks’ respective mobile applications.

Meanwhile, for OTC payments, investors simply need to drop by any BDO, BPI, or Metrobank branch, fill out a payment slip, and hand the payment to the teller.

According to Pama, SLAMCI is set to partner with more banks in the coming months. “This way, our investors can easily stay on track in their journey towards their financial goals,” she said.
