We are

Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc.

As one of the major life insurance companies in the country, we offer life insurance and investment-linked products to meet the evolving financial needs of Filipinos.

Our Business

Sun Life Grepa Financial, Inc. (Sun Life Grepa) is a joint venture between the Yuchengco Group of Companies (YGC) and Sun Life Philippines (Sun Life). Sun Life Grepa offers financial protection products through its agency, bancassurance, and group account channels. 

YGC is one of Southeast Asia’s largest conglomerates with over 90 companies, while Sun Life has been a top player in the Philippine market for over 120 years.

A product of the union of distinct brands with their own strengths and global recognition, Sun Life Grepa is a major player in the life insurance industry in the country.

Sun Life Grepa was formerly known as Grepalife Financial, the flagship life insurance firm of YGC. Established in 1954, it has evolved to be one of the industry’s leaders with its daring innovations that have now become industry standards. Grepalife Financial was the first local insurance firm to pioneer the installment life concept and group credit. It also introduced the salary savings/ salary deduction plan which allowed public servants and ordinary employees to pay for their policies. Carrying its original mandate to bring the benefits of life insurance to those who needed it most – the underpaid and the rural folk – Grepalife Financial sought to find greater ways to give more Filipinos access to life insurance. With the joint venture between Sun Life and YGC, a part of Grepalife’s name was incorporated in the new entity name, Sun Life Grepa.

As one of the country’s major life insurance companies, Sun Life Grepa focuses its efforts on financial literacy, with the aim of enlightening Filipinos on the importance of preparing for a brighter, more prosperous future. The company does this though its various campaigns anchored on Money for Life – a planning tool that helps people plan for their changing financial needs at any stage of life, be it from getting started, to moving up, to preparing ahead, to leaving a legacy.

Company Purpose

Sun Life Grepa has a shared Company Purpose with Sun Life Financial, that being to help clients achieve lifetime financial security and live healthier lives.

In doing so, we are committed to put our clients at the center of everything we do as we strive to be among the best insurance companies in the country.
