BPI AIA makes health security affordable and accessible for SMEs


An economy like the Philippines which is made up of hundreds of thousands of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), employees are instrumental in driving the success of recovery efforts.

Yet behind the momentum of thriving in the “now normal” lurks the financial risk that comes with the

easily set one back by millions of pesos. SMEs, by nature, are particularly exposed to this kind of 
liability, in addition to the intangible losses this may incur, such as reputation damage from service 
disruption.
