Pru Life UK joins British trade mission to Davao City

BRITISH life insurer Pru Life UK, the whollyowned subsidiary of British financial services giant Prudential plc, joined the two-day cross-sector trade and investment mission to Davao City of the British Chamber of Commerce Philippines (BCCP). The landmark trade mission coincided with at least two major milestones — the increased interest in Davao City and the rest of Mindanao since the election of the Philippines’ incumbent president who hails from the region, and the aggressive push by the United Kingdom to further strengthen its economic ties with its trading partners such as the Philippines amid Brexit. The trade mission aims to explore the business potential and commercial opportunities in Davao City and in the rest of Mindanao.
