Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) is the global benchmark of financial advisory excellence

MAKATI CITY, Philippines, July 20, 2026 – AIA Philippines, formerly Philam Life and the Philippine arm of leading multinational insurer AIA Group, and BPI AIA Life Assurance Corporation (BPI AIA), the bancassurance partnership between AIA Philippines and the Bank of the Philippine Islands, recorded a combined 458 Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) qualifiers in 2026—the highest in the Philippines—while also earning places among the Top 100 MDRT companies worldwide. The achievement underscores their continued commitment to developing world-class financial professionals.

Million Dollar Round Table is recognized as the Premier Association of Financial Professionals^®. MDRT members are required to generate a minimum level of premiums, commission and income, while consistently demonstrating professional knowledge, strict ethical conduct, and outstanding customer service. The recognition is widely regarded as one of the highest standards of excellence in the global life insurance and financial services industry.

“Our people are at the heart of this achievement. Every MDRT qualifier reflects the dedication, professionalism, and commitment to continuous learning that enable them to better serve our customers,” said Melita Teo, Chief Executive Officer, AIA Philippines. “We continuously invest in our people through best-in-class training, industry-first tools like AI Roleplay, and other innovations so they can provide trusted guidance that empowers more Filipinos to protect what matters most and live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives.”

This milestone reflects the strength and quality of AIA Philippines and BPI AIA's financial advisor network, with 184 and 274 MDRTs, respectively. AIA Philippines increased its number of MDRT qualifiers by 26% compared to previous year, while BPI AIA maintained its position as the country's leading bancassurance company by MDRT qualifiers. These achievements underscore both companies' continued commitment to excellence through investments in talent recruitment, capability-building, professional development, and training, empowering advisors to deliver greater value and better meet the evolving needs of Filipino customers.

These achievements also reinforce AIA Group's continued global leadership. For the 12th consecutive year, AIA Group was recognized as the number one MDRT multinational company globally, reflecting the professionalism and dedication of its agents and agency leaders across Asia, as well as its long-standing commitment to investing in its agency force through best-in-class training, tools, and support.

As more Filipinos seek trusted guidance in protecting what matters most, AIA Philippines and BPI AIA will continue strengthening the capabilities of their people so they can better support customers at every stage of life.
