Top Life Insurance Companies in the Philippines for 2010

Looks like the Insurance Commission is now quick on this one – I just checked today and they have already released the Top Life Insurance Companies in the Philippines for 2010. Usually it takes more than 1 year before they make an update to their website. 😀 <keep up the good work>

The last time I made an update on the Top Insurance Companies in the Philippines was way back 2007 – see list here. Let’s make a quick comparison on who stayed on the top, who kept their rankings and who made good improvements after 3 years.

  • Grepalife from #8 to #9.

Decliners

  • Insular from #3 to #5.
  • Manulife from #5 to #7.
  • United Cocolife from #8 to #9.
  • National Life dropped from top 15 .
  • Great Life also dropped.

New Entries to Top 15

  • Manulife Chinabank (I’m not sure if it’s the same with Manufacturers Life Insurance Co., Inc. The (Branch)
  • Phil Prudential at #15.

Please take note that in the end it wouldn’t really matter if your life insurance policy doesn’t belong to the Top Insurance Companies in the Philippines. As long as they are able to keep what they have promised to you, that for me will always be the best insurance company. (Altho for sure, others will say that it will simply show how stable is the company).

Oh, just a quick note. Most likely, anyone in the Top 5 rankings can easily say that they are #1. Might be true coz there are different parameters used like first year premiums, premium income, first year premiums + 10% of single premium. The same reason why there are more than one company claiming to be the #1. 😀
